Treecleaners doesn't really do this at present, although we may expand it in the future.  Co-ordinate between qa and security.

media-gfx/xzg <-- smithj was seen about 3 days ago, so I want to wait for him on this one.
Comment 5 Chris White (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-05 19:15:18 UTC
net-misc/zebedee waiting on s390
media-gfx/xzg waiting on smithj

everything else is done, cheers.
Comment 6 Chris White (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-05 21:26:08 UTC
Smithj said he's going to mask xzg so I'm going to skip that one and let him mask/remove action on it.
Comment 7 Jonathan Smith (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-07 13:37:04 UTC
media-gfx/xzgv masked pending removal; there are much better image viewing utilities out there which are maintained.
Comment 8 Marijn Schouten (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-08 01:30:09 UTC
xzgv is in the fluxbox desktop guide, which is why I have it installed. what would be a good replacement?
Comment 9 Todd Marimon 2006-08-08 22:13:20 UTC
I too need a replacement.
Comment 10 Robert Wolf 2006-08-10 10:41:57 UTC
"media-gfx/xzgv masked pending removal; there are much better image viewing
utilities out there which are maintained"

please, could you advise some goog image viewer? I have already tried many viewers, but none have met my expectations but xzgv. I start using zgv on console and I was happy it is for X. It's simple (two pannels) and it can change image very fast using "space" and "b" keys. Is the any image viewer with this features?

- like ACDSee
- using simple interface
- possible to use only with keys (no mouse)
- only two pannel (directory navigation and file list on one, and the image on the other) - when I used ACDSee, I have switched all useless pannels and let only directory structure and file list
- is really fast
- can do simple image manipulation (zoom, fit to screen-enlarge,shrink), rotate
- can do simple file management (mkdir, rmdir, delete, copy, move)

the other very good image viewer I found is links2 html broswer (but it cannot do file management and more image manipulation)

Is there any other simple image viewer like xzgv which could be fine for me?

Thank you for answer.

Do your second quiz and get it approved.

please, don't remove xzgv from portage. I have tried all other image viewers I could find in portage and none were as fast (to load, to use) and as fitting to my needs. Of course, if you can list some "better image viewing utilities", I am eager to hear it.

On the other hand... xzgv seems unmaintained upstream, so the old users will have to keep one ebuild in an overlay or will have to install it manually and new users won't be presented to security issues it presents...

And anyway, Raphael Marichez, how is your progress becoming a maintainer? :)
Comment 15 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-17 09:27:02 UTC
Folks really, moaning here about a tool that's been dead upstream for 3+ years doesn't do any good unless you are willing to take it over upstream and maintain the code. Also, bugzilla is not exactly a place to chat about good image viewers.
Comment 16 Robert Wolf 2006-09-17 11:09:02 UTC
Hi xzgv lovers:)

I've found a few days ago new project, new image viewer ACDSee like, called Goby. I've tried it and I've created ebuild for it. It's in development, but it this stage it looks great to me. Can anyone manage ebuild for this project? http://goby.sf.net.

Sorry for chating here about image viewers.

Wolf.

Ebuild for Goby

Here is my ebuild for Goby.
Comment 18 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-09-17 11:24:38 UTC
Uh, stop! This bug is about *cleaning* up vulnerable cruft. Go file a new one for Goby or whatever else. No ebuilds attached here, please. Thanks.
Comment 19 Pablo De Nápoli 2006-10-01 16:35:42 UTC
Please don't remove xzgv, it is a nice simple yet  useful application.
I love it.
Comment 20 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-20 02:52:37 UTC
Only media-gfx/xzgv left, all the rest done.
Comment 21 Stephen Stegall 2006-11-04 20:47:28 UTC
Do not remove xzgv !!! i'll deal w/ xmms, but not xzgv...
Comment 22 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2006-11-11 21:38:37 UTC
mega bugs suck; file individual ones in the future
Comment 23 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2006-11-26 11:09:46 UTC
What is the current problem of xzgv?

Thanks a lot for information :-)
Comment 24 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2006-11-27 04:14:36 UTC
Why will xzgv-0.8-r2 be removed?

In main post says:
media-gfx/xzgv-0.8-r1: vulnerable via glsa(200604-10) ( ver-rev < 0.8-r2 ),
affects ('alpha', 'amd64', 'hppa', 'ia64', 'ppc', 'ppc64', 'sparc', 'x86')

But 0.8-r2 is not affected by this bug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127008

Then, 0.8-r2 doesn't need to be removed
Comment 25 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2006-12-10 04:59:09 UTC
xzgv-0.8-r2 is not affected by security bug, please, unmask it
Comment 26 Steve L 2007-05-18 11:33:57 UTC
Um is it possible to unmask this then? (I don't see the point in filing a new bug.)
Comment 27 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-07 22:17:32 UTC
Still in tree and using GTK+-1.2. Entry in package.mask is getting stale. Please remove.
Comment 28 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-20 08:03:34 UTC
Jonathan, can we get rid of this?

GTK+-1.2 needs to die.
Comment 29 Jonathan Smith (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-20 13:48:54 UTC
kill it. kill it with fire
Comment 30 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-21 07:50:25 UTC
killed

> Uh, stop! This bug is about *cleaning* up vulnerable cruft.

This is *not* _vulnerable_ any more. *plop* ;P



Comment 32 David Radice 2007-10-21 13:12:54 UTC
It seems that xzgv has a new maintainer so I have opened bug 196597, requesting a new ebuild for xzgv-0.9 (which now uses gtk2 and imlib2).

Sorry I didn't know if it was better to add the ebuild here or if it was better to  fill a new bug report for it...
