Bug 299083 – app-dicts/qvortaro removal request

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2009-12-31 11:38:04 UTC]

There's a 0.3.2 bump available, but it doesn't compile entirely against Qt4. 0.3.1 is using Qt3 (bug 283429) and has bug 297152 and bug 297151.

[Comment 1 Arne Babenhauserheide 2010-01-12 08:17:32 UTC]

I just saw that qvortaro is flagged for removal. Since I use it on an almost weekly base, I'll look into the bugs.

[Comment 2 Arne Babenhauserheide 2010-01-12 09:12:20 UTC]

Also there's a new version (0.4) available upstream. http://qvortaro.berlios.de/

[Comment 3 Arne Babenhauserheide 2010-01-12 09:25:45 UTC]

I get build errors with qt 4.5 and version 0.4, though - very likely similar to those which scribus had: http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=7768

qvortaro-0.4.ebuild

Not yet working (build failure), very preliminary version of the ebuild - adapted from the 0.3.1 one.

[Comment 5 Arne Babenhauserheide 2010-01-12 09:52:04 UTC]

PS: I just reported the 0.4 build failure upstream. 

[Comment 6 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) 2010-01-12 16:29:03 UTC]

Sorry but there is no maintainer for this package and it doesn't build with the latest stable Qt version on portage. Unless someone takes care of this package, we have to remove it 

[Comment 7 Arne Babenhauserheide 2010-01-15 10:16:47 UTC]

The developer says he's already got a fix for qt 4.6 - he told me he'd only get to doing a bugfix release this weekend. 

Can it stay in portage when I get it working with the current qt (or rather get the fixed version from upstream to build)? That way users wouldn't suddenly lose their program and the move away from qt3 wouldn't be hindered anymore.

There's time until 2010-02-11. If they manage to get a release out in that time scale, I'll happily add a new version to tree and revert this process. 

Please keep us informed, thanks

Removed. Let us know if there's a Qt4 (0.4.1?) release out.

[Comment 10 Arne Babenhauserheide 2010-01-26 11:49:42 UTC]

The new release is out - I'll attach the ebuild. 

I still have some work todo with the ebuild, though.

qvortaro-0.4.1.ebuild

Installs the binary, but doesn't yet get the dictionaries and doesn't install the icons.

[Comment 12 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2010-01-27 11:51:07 UTC]

Restored 0.4.1 to Portage, thanks and sorry for removing it so hastily.
