Bug 85414 – vimbrowser-1.1.ebuild (New Package)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Moshe Kamensky 2005-03-15 13:59:23 UTC]

This is an ebuild for my web browser vim plugin, vim script 1053.

The plugin allows to use vim as a text web browser. It has history, 
bookmarks, supports forms (I'm using it right now to submit the ebuild), 
viewing inline images (using external viewers), viewing arbitrary content 
types (via mailcap files), a sidebar, and of course, HTML markup and links.

It is mostly written in perl, and requires perl enabled vim.

I also attach an ebuild for the synmark plugin, on which it depends.

A dependency of vimbrowser-1.1.ebuild

Hrm, we can't reliably use vim.org SRC_URIs so we'll have to mirror ourselves. I think the perl dep needs checking too -- libperl might be better?

I'll take this once I'm done breaking^W moving sys-apps unless someone else wants to.

[Comment 4 Moshe Kamensky 2005-03-16 01:25:06 UTC]

Ok, here's another try. I attach two modified ebuilds, and a re-packaged 
vimbrowser.

The perl dependency is needed for the command line script, vimbrowse.  
Otherwise, I guess libperl is enough. Maybe this can depend on another use 
flag.

What I don't is how to depend on vim with a perl use flag. Is it possible?

Sadly, we can't currently depend upon packages built with a certain flag enabled. That's a rather long-standing feature requirement that still hasn't been implemented...

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug)
'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached 
to this bug.
This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the 
main tree.

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. 
We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. 

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Jeremy.

According to the link given in the URL box, the latest commit for this project dates back to 2005. We can consider this plugin somewhat dead and/or unmaintained. It won't be added to Portage. Closing.
