Phoenix 0.1 is a new light weight browser based on mozilla 1.2. I basicly edited a mozilla-1.1-r1 ebuild to get it to work. Since they didnt release the src I had to follow the instuctions on their site to get the src from the cvs server. So I created a tar.gz file with the src in it. Its basicly Mozilla-trunk + mozilla/browser + mozilla/toolkit. I had to do it this way because todays trunk is broken for 0.1 and I had to use yesterdays. (sep 24th 2002) here is the src. http://linux.darylstimm.com/phoenix-0.1.tar.gz I also added a .mozconfig file to the src which has the configure options it needs to make phoenix.
Created attachment 4156 [details] phoenix-0.1.ebuild
Created attachment 4215 [details] This is the new ebuild plus a patch i made for the unix.js file (for truetype)
I couldn't resist the poetry..
Hey daryl I added phoenix-bin to the tree some days ago. I think its better to use the binaries, cause of the very early stage of phoenix. Besides, i dont want to take a new snapshot every week. :) Is that okay with you? -phoen][x-
I think a build from source is preferable to the binary ebuilds. Though still "alpha", phoenix is quite usable, and I would prefer a slightly out of date phoenix built from a source snapshot to an up-to-the-minute binary phoenix. The reason is that Xft (truetype/anti-aliasing) support is not compiled into the binaries. Creating a source ebuild for Phoenix would allow truetype support via USE flags.
We shall have both then. Could anybody please bump this ebuild to the newest version (take a new snapshot and, ...) ? I would do it myself, but my hda is still b0rked - i should get it up and running this afternoon (10-12hrs from now). If everything works fine, that is. Btw, do me a favor and look at bug 9962 please ( http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9962 ). Got a clue? -phoen][x-
I might have some time to work on this today. I replied to your question about bug 9962 over there.
