Description Fredrik Jagenheim 2003-03-05 05:49:36 UTC

Also needs a note that the configuration files has changed, but that's life on
the -devel branch. ;)

[Rant warning]
And, please update this package. Somehow, my latest emerge managed to downgrade
my ion-devel to 20020605 without me catching it and it crashed hard. I won't
make a bug report on it since there is a resolution (upgrade ion-devel) and I
didn't bothered to hunt down the problem (the release is over 6 months old).

There are a bunch of patches that Tuomo has posted on the ion-devel mailinglist
but I haven't bothered to post these patches since I had little hope that they'd
be included before Tuomo makes his next release.

I know you all are busy with more highprofile window managers, but for some of
us, ion-devel is a really neat solution, so pretty please with sugar on top,
update the ebuild. :)

See also bug 16077.

I (gentoo@tompayne.org) am an avid Ion user, but have not moved from 20030131 to 20030225 yet because 20030225 doesn't seem to have stabilised properly.

Comment 4 Fredrik Jagenheim 2003-03-11 04:30:10 UTC

Please note that the attached ebuild is missing some important information, such as that the configuration files have changed drastically since the previous release. 
And will _not_ work unless updated from the templates. This is the kind of thing users would like to know. ;)

Besides, I'd rather see the autoconf version by Tom Payne than the sed hack that's there today. ;)
