Description Thomas Eckert 2004-03-14 08:59:35 UTC

a simple rename did the job for me.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 1 Thilo Pfennig 2004-03-16 12:17:19 UTC

What did you rename? I also liek to use moinmoin 1.2.1. Is it available?

Comment 2 Thomas Eckert 2004-03-16 13:00:52 UTC

only renamed the ebuild:
  cd /usr/portage/net-www/moinmoin
  cp -a moinmoin-1.0.ebuild moinmoin-1.2.1.ebuild
  ebuild moinmoin-1.2.1.ebuild digest
  emerge moinmoin
(this change will be reverted on the next "emerge sync" -- the copy will be
deleted).

it would be nice if you could keep this bug up to date with our findings,
  good luck

Okay - I've done what you did, and copied the existing ebuild.  It should be showing up on a local rsync mirror in an hour or so.  

Can you test it for me, and confirm that it works?  I haven't attempted to install and test this for myself ...

looks ok to me, after adjusting moin_config.py the frontpage shows up with all
graphics and the sandbox is editable (although I'm not a active moinmoin-user --
just evaluating wikis in general at the moment).

I'm not sure what the policy for "webapp-configfiles" is ... 2 points:
a) many webapps have a config-files (here: moin_config.py), typically these
files are not protected and get overwritten during a backup
=> how to prevent this? (maybe install config-files with "-${PV}" appended)
b) the currently installed default moin_config.py does not find the graphics:
we could "sed the config-file" or add a note in pkg_postinst() as the user needs
to edit that file anyway. suggestion for note:
einfo "Adjust \"${HTTPD_ROOT}/${PN}/moin_config.py\" to fit your needs."

The issues with the config file will be solved when this ebuild is ported over to use the new webapp-config approach.  I'll open a new bug to cover that work.

Best regards,
Stu
