Bug 304419 – Version bump x11-misc/zim-0.43

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Matt 2010-02-10 22:20:25 UTC]

zim is a very useful tool in bringing the concept of a wiki to your local desktop

since the latest in-tree ebuild for it is already pretty old and besides that it fails and doesn't install fine for me

I'm requesting an updated / working ebuild

Many thanks in advance !

Reproducible: Always

Here's the ebuild I made: http://github.com/disbeliever/disbeliever-overlay/blob/master/x11-misc/zim/zim-0.43.ebuild.

At least, it works for me.

that ebuild works beautifully, it however has a little typo:

>PATCHES=( "${FILESDIR}/${P}-disaple-updates.patch" )
 
should read

>PATCHES=( "${FILESDIR}/${P}-disable-updates.patch" )

${P}-disable-updates.patch instead of ${P}-disaple-updates.patch

thanks a lot Max ! :)

Well, it looks like you've updated the ebuild in your overlay to zim-0.44
http://github.com/disbeliever/disbeliever-overlay/tree/master/x11-misc/zim/

For zim to work, python must be built with the "sqlite" use flag.

I added the PYTHON_USE_WITH variable, added python to inherit, and added pkg_setup as shown below. This will make sure that sqlite is required.

====snippet====
# $Header: $

PYTHON_USE_WITH="sqlite"
EAPI="2"

inherit eutils fdo-mime distutils python

NEED_PYTHON=2.5
====snippet====
PATCHES=( "${FILESDIR}/${P}-disaple-updates.patch" )

pkg_setup() {
    python_pkg_setup
}

src_unpack() {

Thanks,
