Description Pat Double 2006-04-08 18:51:59 UTC

Here's an updated patch to kerry for displaying ebuild results. This changes the results to:
1. Put the home page URL in place of the folder name in which it is found. You can click on it to open the URL.
2. Make the ebuild description the result description.
3. If download size property is available, display in megabytes or kilobytes.
4. If installed, display install time and size.
5. Show "kuroo" icon instead of default icon. There is no official Gentoo .ebuild icon, so I went with this one. Any suggestions are welcome.

Sorry I forgot to mention that in order to see the download size and install size there is a patch to the beagle ebuild filter that has not made it into the beagle CVS yet.

I'll update it later on today (now I'm having a bit of CPU usage for the virtualmachine).
By the way, Kerry is now in KDE's SVN, have you tried contacting binner, to move all the development upstream?

Comment 5 Pat Double 2006-04-09 06:24:23 UTC

I tried contacting binner, one change I made got in which was not Gentoo specific. The others did not. I never got a response, just noticed that the one patch made it through.

Yeha same happened with my .desktop patch, silently applied. Try re-writing to him, maybe he just forgot to reply.

Anyway, I'm going to commit this although it has a glitch: the icon is not available when kuroo is not installed, so it displays an empty icon. Maybe you can talk with the kuroo guys (and with upstream kde) to have an ebuild icon similar to the RPM and DEB icons there are already.

If you can have that icon, I'll see to add it to the icons installed by KDE :)

Thanks again for your work on this :)
