Bug 200878 – app-misc/emelfm2-0.3.6 version bump

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Tobias Jakobi 2007-11-30 21:45:29 UTC]

Hi there,

a new version of emelfm2, the gtk2 port of emelfm, was released in the last days. Now the current stable version is 0.3.6, the most recent version in portage is 0.3.5. It would be very nice to get a version bump of this fine (and lightweight) filemanager.

You can find additional information about the new release in the ChangeLog:
http://emelfm2.net/ChangeLog

This release should also permanently close an emelfm2 bug I posted some time ago on this bugtracker.

Thanks,
Tobias

emelfm2-0.3.6.ebuild

Can you try this ebuild? I've changed my hardware to ~amd64 and emelfm2 isn't keyworded for ~amd64, and when I tried, it segmentation faults.

I'm currently using this ebuild on an intel 32bit machine (Pentium M) and it seems to work. At least I didn't get emelfm2 to segfault.
Going to try the ebuild on my 64bit machine in the next week.

Appearently the bug I mentioned before was not completly fixed, so I might want to talk about it again on the mailing list :-(

I have succesfully build the application on my 64bit machine, an AMD Athlon64 3500+. emelfm2 starts up and I can do regular work. No crashes.

Anything new? I'm still using your supplied ebuild and emelfm2 works like a charm. No major problems so far.

I'm hoping someone with ~x86 hardware would add the ebuild, which is why I assigned this bug to desktop-misc team. 

I can't get it to work on my ~amd64.

Hmm,

most of the time I'm using my laptop system (with a Celeron-M 32bit CPU) but I didn't encounter any segfaults when using emelfm2 0.3.6 on my 64bit based system.

Maybe you can trace the segfault and report this to the developers.

The devs have also posted a patch against 0.3.6 on their website:
http://emelfm2.net/OtherDownLoads?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=e2-0.3.6-07-12-01.patch.bz2

Maybe you need this one to elimate the segfault? I think it's worth a try.
Could be also something to be integrated in 0.3.6-r1 :-)

Going to ask my friend to test this ebuild on his system (another 32bit setup), so we can at least call this ~x86.
