Description Russell Knighton 2016-08-19 08:16:21 UTC

New version was released on 17/08/16

Note that the version number has been tagged as "13" rather than just "0.13" because ... well ... for some unknown reason (that's lost on me anyway!), it's just the way everyone does it nowadays I guess.

Release notes:
https://github.com/rhinstaller/efibootmgr/releases/tag/13

efibootmgr-13.ebuild

New ebuild for efibootmgr-13.

Based off of current efibootmgr-0.12 ebuild in portage tree.

Corrected SRC_URI ("PV" instead of "P"):
-SRC_URI="https://github.com/rhinstaller/${PN}/releases/download/${P}/${P}.tar.bz2"
+SRC_URI="https://github.com/rhinstaller/${PN}/releases/download/${PV}/${P}.tar.bz2"

Although it's not documented anywhere that I could see, this version of bootmgr wouldn't compile with efivar-0.23 (as is currently in portage), so I did a local bump to efivar-26, which then worked for me. (See existing bug 591648)

Also updated paths for the binaries/docs/man pages that seem to have changed, added new efibootdump binary & man page, and removed the Changelog, which is no longer provided:
