Description Dekel Amrani 2007-03-25 01:49:40 UTC
Hi.

I was looking for a good Babylon/Babytrans replacement that support also en2he translation and came across wordtrans.

However is doesn't appear to be on any of the overlays or portage.

I will be thankful if anybody can add an ebuild for it.

Thanks.
Dekel

Reproducible: Always

It seems the developer of this application is rather lazy, and does not include a configure script in his sources. The source is also jumbled up, and lacks support. Manually editing files to build from source, and source descriptions are in spanish. I attempted to build an ebuild for you, but sorry; no can do.

seems this request hasn't turned into an ebuild yet. If you want to help with it, it's not that hard to write one: http://devmanual.gentoo.org/quickstart/index.html

If you need further help, feel free to ask on forums or #gentoo-dev-help or #gentoo-sunrise on irc (latter is also useful if you want to maintain the app yourself)

note: we're not turning you down for this request in any way, it's just that we don't have ressources to fix all of them. though if you're willing to help, it would be more than nice to do so, as that is what we definately need :)
