Bug 77863 – wxDesigner ebuild missing

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Patrizio Bassi 2005-01-13 10:04:55 UTC]

i think that in the gentoo portage there must be the wxdesigner ebuild.

i searched for it but couldn't find.

it's an IDE for wxWidgets libraries.
however it's not free..

author provides rpm linked against gtk1 and 2...and tar.gz too
here is the author ebuild:
http://www.roebling.de/wxDesigner-2.11.ebuild
it's against gtk2

but it's very easy to change for gtk1 too.

Desktop entry for kde:
http://www.roebling.de/wxDesigner.desktop

that's all.

dev-utils suggested

We can't commit an ebuild to portage unless we know it works. I'd be happy to add it if the author gives me a copy to test :-D

I see there is a demo available. I'll mail the company and ask if the demo installs exactly like the actual product. If so, I can add an ebuild.

demo + key = full

so ebuild will work. the only difference is that in demo mode you can't save projects.

[Comment 5 Patrizio Bassi 2005-03-30 06:23:46 UTC]

i have no interest in adding demos for commercial software to portage.
