exaile-9999.ebuild based on sqlite branch

Hello, 

Exaile was removed from portage because of an unmet dependency
see bug #922816

Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> opened upstream issue https://github.com/exaile/exaile/issues/915

since then, someone create a "sqlite" branch of exaile that no longer relies on the missing "Berkeley DB / dev-python/bsddb3"

The ebuild in atachment #1 works as expected and is based on the old ebuild https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/media-sound/exaile/exaile-9999.ebuild?id=5a2a98c5eeb0728e3b22945a1af523b93bbeb089 that I reworked using my very limited ebuild knowledge.

I would like to request exaile be added back in portage even if it is only a version 9999 until a definitive solution is found (hopefully the branch will be merged to main)

Thank you

someone? branch? 

as in, not upstream? master?
Comment 2 Sylvain 2025-02-27 02:55:57 UTC
Upstream yes, in the exaile github but not in the master branch,  In a branch named sqlite.
