[Comment 1 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2005-06-05 14:02:18 UTC]

I'm thinking that perl-tk should be invoked by use flag though - the app is a 
console app as well after all. Comments? 

[Comment 2 Michaela Susan Buesing 2005-06-05 14:21:01 UTC]

I think the "X" useflag would be useful. If present: Build/install the X version
and depend on perl-tk.

[Comment 3 Michaela Susan Buesing 2005-06-05 14:22:50 UTC]

The X version also doesn't work when perl-tk is installed. It pops up a
requester asking for a eBayAgent.pl file that is not installed by the ebuild and
refuses to work otherwise.

[Comment 4 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2005-06-05 16:04:29 UTC]

The pop up is fixed (I am cursing myself for every accepting this user 
contributed ebuild). added an optional dep on perl-tk. let me know how you fare 
with -r1. 

[Comment 5 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2005-06-06 03:14:26 UTC]

Adding a cc for the user that submitted this ebuild to begin with, just so he's 
aware of problems at least.

ebayagent-0.9.11-r2.ebuild

Sorry for the buggy ebuild I provided

I hope this will be better

with USE tcltk it will install /usr/bin/XeBayAgent
with USE tools it will install /usr/bin/runrepebay /usr/bin/repebay
/usr/bin/eBayAgent_Skript

the patch from ebayagent-0.9.11-r1.ebuild won

the patch from ebayagent-0.9.11-r1.ebuild won´t  is not correct
why use files/ebayagent.patch if sed is sufficient?

sed does the job very well

sed now also patches XeBayAgent and set the path to eBayAgent.
eBayAgent_Skript gets also patched correctly

sed edit also repebay and runrepebay

[Comment 9 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2005-06-06 15:09:55 UTC]

Because your sed was messy, sed is not universal in syntax, and patching is 
cleaner all around. and because once in the tree, i get the bugs :)

I really dislike the "patch-way" -- but you

[Comment 11 Frieder Bürzele 2005-06-06 16:53:20 UTC]

I really dislike the "patch-way" -- but you´re getting the bugs so if you like I
provide a patch
thx

Ebuild updated, closing this bug.
