• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Antonio Quartulli 2009-02-27 08:21:41 UTC]

A new version of xfce is available!

Reproducible: Always

[Comment 1 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) 2009-02-27 20:14:28 UTC]

yes, we know. ;)

Main xfce maintainer is on vacation, so hopefully we can get to it soon-ish. I can't wait, myself..

I'm writing somes ebuilds to install this new version of xfce.
If you want, when I would have a set of ebuilds which could install this version I can post it. (In this case should I open one bug report by ebuild ?)

And if I could give you some help ... I'll be happy ;)
best regards.

Although we appreciate it, there isn't a strong need for that. Most of the ebuilds just need a name change and moved from the xfce overlay[1] to the tree. But, like I said, the cordination for that needs to wait until angelos gets back from vacation (poor timing!). We are also trying to cordinate some name changes.

I have some ebuilds for xfce-4.6 (actually renamed older ones).
You can get them from this overlay: http://github.com/l29ah/booboo/
There are also some tips for layman/paludis in wiki.

everything in tree, as Jeremy said, a simple rename of the ebuilds in the overlay would've done it for those who can't wait

Xfce4-power-manager is still missing from Portage.

[Comment 8 Christoph Mende (RETIRED) 2009-03-10 15:18:00 UTC]

no, it's not: http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager/

[Comment 9 Pablo Hess 2009-03-13 04:40:45 UTC]

The thing is still pretty messy for me (amd64 with all xfce4-4.6.0 ebuilds & friends in package.keywords):

# emerge -vup xfce4

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies -

!!! Invalid or corrupt dependency specification: 

invalid atom: '>=xfce-base/libxfce4util-'

('ebuild', '/', 'xfce-extra/xfce4-mixer-4.6.0', 'merge')

>=dev-libs/glib-2.12:2 >=media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.2 >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.10:2 >=xfce-base/libxfce4util- >=xfce-base/libxfcegui4- >=xfce-base/xfce4-panel- >=xfce-base/xfconf- alsa?

This package can not be installed. Please notify the 'xfce-
extra/xfce4-mixer-4.6.0' package maintainer about this problem.
... done!


###########################################
This message:
invalid atom: '>=xfce-base/libxfce4util-'

refers to this RDEPEND line in the ebuild:
>=xfce-base/libxfce4util-${XFCE_VERSION}

Looks like the ebuild lines:
inherit xfce4
xfce4_core

are not actually being executed. I already tried commenting those two lines out and hardcoding the needed variables (e.g. XFCE_VERSION="4.6.0") into the ebuild, but it doesn't seem to work.

Thanks for any suggestion.

not entirely sure why the package move doesn't work for you.
