Anyone feel like taking a crack at this? Best regards, Stu I'll give it a shot Created attachment 35650 [details]
mambo-4.5.ebuild
spyderous and Stuart:
Here we go. Pretty simple stuff here, most of the work is actually done by
their web installer.
- Their version numbers and tarball names are slightly insane. SRC_URI is thus
hardcoded (ok'd by Stuart), and the ebuild is 4.5 instead of 4.5.0, although
their unstable version is 4.5.1.
- The web installer checks for PHP version, but I wasn't quite sure how to
handle that with virtual/php.
- There is a bit of a snafu with the config file: there's a
configuration.php-dist, and the installer generates configuration.php after the
installation is done. Now, if that doesn't exist, the installer complains, but
you can proceed. If the file exists (either blank or with <?php> in it),
Firefox goes into what seems to be a recursion loop, and Opera and IE still
complain that it's non-writeable. So, I provide instructions on how to create
it manually, just check the reconfig hook.
Oh, and this was written over ssh across half the globe. Fun.
That's about it. Comments/questions/more requests are welcome.

more silly bugs
In CVS Just wanted to remark that while it took me a while to figure out that user and database had to be present in mysql prior to installing mambo (else db setup would bork), everything went fine. Regarding the config file: Couldn't you just do 'touch configuration.php; chgrp apache configuration.php; chmod 664 configuration.php' in the postinst-script? Or what is the problem? Anno, Thanks for the feedback. I'll add the db reminder to the instructions. Re config file---I wrote this ebuild before I figured out what webapp_configfile does, so i'll see if i can use that. Probably won't happen for a bit, as I'm swamped, so reopening for now as a reminder In CVS. see my comments above re configfile. |
