Description Dennis Schridde 2015-11-15 17:14:03 UTC
Released two weeks ago: https://getnikola.com/blog/nikola-v773-is-out.html
Comment 1 Dennis Schridde 2015-11-15 18:48:15 UTC
This is an important update, because 7.6.3 contains a serious bug: https://github.com/getnikola/nikola/issues/2173
Comment 2 cyberbat 2015-11-22 21:32:43 UTC
Seems to be a proble with updating to 7.7.3 cause it needs husl (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/husl) and I don't see it in portage.
Comment 3 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-12-26 14:40:49 UTC
7.7.4 is available
Comment 4 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-02-16 22:13:09 UTC
7.7.5 is available. I have added dev-python/husl package to the tree.
Comment 5 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-02-18 22:25:26 UTC
The another problem is licensing. In older versions there was "A Study in Scarlet" used in examples. The text file is licensed with Project Gutenberg License. Ben has found version of this text with a free license. Now this story has been replaced with "A BID FOR FORTUNE OR; DR. NIKOLA'S VENDETTA" which is, once again, licensed with Project Gutenberg License. See bug #552372, comment 1.
Comment 6 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-02-19 20:27:44 UTC
I have reported it upstream: https://github.com/getnikola/nikola/issues/2255

Oleg: It appears as if your messages have no effect. Please find an alternative to the Nikola ebuild in the Gentoo tree, until the maintainer catches up or hands over maintainership to someone more active.
Comment 11 cyberbat 2016-07-17 23:24:08 UTC
7.7.9 is already here

So, what will happen if developer will not do this? This will hang forever. Current way of maintainership/team/herd sucks badly in gentoo. Any developers can fix this. Nobody care about this simple policy.
