exempi is a port of Adobe's XMP library to Linux. Among other things, it will be used by the upcoming app-misc/tracker-0.6 release to read XMP metadata from image files.
Created attachment 125191 [details] exempi-1.99.3.ebuild The ebuild. SLOT="2" because there is also exempi-1, which can be installed in parallel with exempi-2, and which we might want to use someday.
Created attachment 125192 [details, diff] exempi-1.99.3-unit-test-m4.patch Patch, required for above ebuild. Allows configure to correctly detect boost even if the user has --as-needed and similar in LDFLAGS.
Created attachment 125193 [details, diff] exempi-1.99.3-tests-boost-1.34.patch Patch required for above ebuild. Makes the tests compatible with boost-1.34
Also >=gnome-base/nautilus-2.19.6 has support for exempi metadata loading.
Adding gnome to CC for possible future conditional use in nautilus for XMP metadata showing
exempi is now in the sunrise overlay. You can get the latest version from http://overlays.gentoo.org/svn/proj/sunrise/reviewed/media-libs/exempi/
v2 is out, this version should have a stable API policy so we can start using it with other packages in tree properly.
Bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206041 has a patch to disable building nautilus with XMP support. Any other reason no to bump this to main tree?
this has been in gnome overlay for a while and will land with gnome 2.24.
2.0.2 in tree. Closing.
