Bug 8508 – contrib ebuild for the iDesk desktop icon program

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Bryn Davies 2002-09-28 09:21:07 UTC]

iDesk is a useful program for binding desktop icons for use mainly in box
windowmanagers like flux.  while this is still an early release, it is quite
usable, and I think would be a nice addition ( perhaps masked ) to the next
unfrozen stage past 1.4

Be gentle.  This is my first ebuild.

Thanks for the contribution, it's appreciated and welcome anytime :)

I have had an ebuild prepared since the freeze started...just waiting for it to
be over. I included the XFT patch I'll attach above so u can compare :) I'll
note u in the changelog when I up it after the freeze thanks.

Now commited and in portage

Ivan has just moved ( or is in the process of moving ) this page off hackergene
- it now lives at http://linuxhelp.hn.org/idesk.php

You might want to make it build with 0.33 instead of 0.3 with my patch as well -
0.33 has a corrected README and some bugfixes.

Ciao! :-)

all the patch pages a couple times a day :)
