Mozilla folk: since Komodo is based on the mozilla engine, I'm passing this to you for consideration. This is a commercial stuff, seems like none of the developers is using it. Reopen if you have an ebuild. Meanwhile, marking LATER. Please reopen, I will post an ebuild. Please also change "Component" to "Ebuilds"; "Keywords" to "EBUILD"; "Summary" to "komodo-ide-bin-4.0.2.ebuild (new package)". - Description: Commercial IDE for dynamic and Web languages. [There is a 21-day trial, after registration... after this, you have to pay for a license] - Homepage: http://www.activestate.com/products/komodo_ide/ - License: ActiveState Komodo IDE (globally, proprietary software, no modification, and no redistribution allowed -I added `RESTRICT="mirror"` to the ebuild, for now. It is not yet included in "/usr/portage/licenses" (I will attach it). - New local USE flag: `app-editors/komodo-ide-bin:default-templates - Installs the default templates for new files` (Rationale: most default templates are empty, or near-empty, and can clutter the new file dialog, so we permit not to install them -some people might want to keep them, as a number of these files still contain a possibly useful template). - Category and package name: "app-editor/komodo-ide-bin". - Note: it is an x86 binary package; sources are not available. - Note: the package ships with its own Python (it seems to be well-separated, but symlinks to the system version does not seem to work), Mozilla (Komodo Edit seems to be using Mozilla for its whole interface, so I have no idea if we could use our own version), HTML tidy (could be replaced with a simple symlink), and a number of DTDs/schemas (including a few for which we already have ebuilds). - Note: that there are EXECSTACK, TEXTRELS, and insecure RUNPATH stuffs, but I don't know exactly what these are, and if there is any possibility to solve these problems with a proprietary binary package. If needed, they have a bugzilla, here: http://bugs.ActiveState.com/Komodo An ebuild for Komodo Edit (a freeware limited version of Komodo IDE), has been posted in bug #171944. The package is very similar, except a few more files and directories. Created attachment 114186 [details]
komodo-ide-bin-4.0.2.ebuild (new package)
(Note I didn't test beyond the registration dialog, when first launching the IDE, because I don't have a license, and don't want to register for a trial... however, as said, there isn't much core changes, if any, between Komodo IDE, and Komodo Edit, and the later works well, with a very similar ebuild...)
