Description DIZ 2012-03-31 19:40:30 UTC

The following is an exchange from the Gentoo mailing list:

3) This brings me to the next question, which is: Geany for Mac OSX is
available in other package managers, but is completely missing from
the Gentoo tree; --search brings up nothing at all. I imagine I can
install it, but I'm wondering first whether again it is possible to
request that it be added to the Gentoo tree?

REPLY: File a bug at bugs.gentoo.org. This is different from a version bump
above in that if no-one feels like maintaining it, it simply won't
happen. Mention in your bug that you are a newbie and not up to scratch on
maintaining ebuilds yet.



I understand if this is not a priority, but as suggested thought I would ask and am thus submitting this request. Thanks for your time and consideration.

Reproducible: Always

You mean dev-util/geany?

Comment 2 DIZ 2012-04-02 07:50:47 UTC

Yes, and I would imagine also:

dev-util/geany-plugins

I've seen solutions for installation from MacPorts and Fink; am just wondering whether a Gentoo ebuild is a possibility.

Thank you.

It's been in the tree since 2007 and keyworded for PPC since that year.
