Description Matteo Settenvini 2005-02-06 07:34:28 UTC
Requesting an ebuild for GNU Global.

From the website description:
---
GNU GLOBAL is a source code tag system that works the same way across diverse environments. You can locate a specified object in the source files and move there easily. It is useful for hacking a large project containing many subdirectories, many #ifdef and many main() functions. It is similar to ctags or etags but is different from them at the point of independence of any editor.
---

Gnu Global is also useful for some other development tools. For example, KDevelop does support and make use of it. A lot of packages do generate GTAGS, I used it to generate HTML documentation out of Minix, Linux and GNU Hurd source code.

I'll write an ebuild draft.
Comment 1 Matteo Settenvini 2005-02-06 08:55:50 UTC
I just finished writing the ebuild, should work ok.
Removed old ssl and postgres use flags since I wasn't able to apply them anymore to configure.

Attachment to follow.
