Created attachment 167616 [details] picasa 3 ebuild, alpha Here's something working, which I've produced real-quick. Still, sed curses about some errors around, hope will give you a head start
Created attachment 167670 [details] updated picasa 3 alpha ebuild
Created attachment 167676 [details, diff] diff between the original and updated ebuilds made some simple updates for sed errors. i'm new to gentoo bugzilla and not sure what's the correct course of action so i've attached both updated ebuild and the diff. note on the ebuild: i'm not sure that domenu is a correct call on picasa-kdehal.desktop file.

The new 3.0 ebuild worked for me. I did have to pull in unstable versions of various dependencies: echo 'media-gfx/picasa ~amd64' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords echo 'net-libs/xulrunner ~amd64' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords echo 'dev-libs/nspr ~amd64' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords echo 'dev-libs/nss ~amd64' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords But, otherwise it worked great! Any chance of this moving into stable? I guess it is waiting on the other deps to move to stable first?
Bumped in tree, thanks all.
