2.1.0 is out... adding qt@ if they are intrested in saving this package (In reply to comment #0) > qdvdauthor 2.0.0 has been released Oct 11, 2009, but is not in portage yet. > > Reproducible: Always > > Steps to Reproduce: > 1. > 2. > 3. > > > > The current ebuild for version 1.11.1 works with USE flags -xine +mplayer, but > didn't work with +xine for me.

QDVDauthor 2.1 is an excellent package and should be bumped from 1.11.1 to the latest version (2.1).... Qdvdauthor is a Qt3 application. I think there is no reason saving this application (In reply to comment #3) > Qdvdauthor is a Qt3 application.

I have an ebuild ready for 2.1. I did not commit it because most parts of it are still based on qt3.

I thought I fixed this for media-video/qdvdauthor-1.11.1. (In reply to comment #4) > (In reply to comment #3) > > Qdvdauthor is a Qt3 application.

Parts of it are already qt4, but it will take some time until it is fully based on qt4. (In reply to commtnet #3) qdvdauthor is now masked: # Markos Chandras <hwoarang@gentoo.org> (14 Jan 2010) # Qt3 only application. bug #291878 and bug #283429 # Will be moved to kde-sunset overlay on 2010-02-14" I think it would be good to help people that are still using it finding an alternative. There are not that much options in the tree. I've just finished browsing through media-video, and found three apps for authoring DVDs: 2mandvd, devede, and tovid. Maybe one should include these three names in the commentary cited above (from package.mask), because this is what you see when you update world. citation from http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev-announce/msg_f295c1c2d9d70238d289de3a7ed5bf5c.xml: "# Policy for remaining ebuilds depending on qt:3 # ... * if no Qt4 version exists, check for equivalent/replacement packages, and mask by 2010-02-21" Thanks.
