Description James Broadhead 2010-03-17 01:36:38 UTC 
Adds tools USEflag, which installs xbmcclient.py to site-packages and xbmc-send to /usr/bin.

This is a very useful script to have available for command-line control of xbmc. 

Reproducible: Always

media-tv/xbmc-tools ebuild

Converted patch to new package ebuild as an alternative. This should allow easy addition of more tools without requiring users to re-build xbmc.  

Intend to submit media-tv/xbmc-tools to sunrise overlay.

i dont think a sep ebuild makes sense.  post a diff to the ebuild, not a full ebuild.  full files are a pain to deal with.

Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2010-05-23 20:43:00 UTC 
thinking about it some more, even USE=tools is overkill here.  xbmc already hard requires python, so it isnt like the flag would be controlling that dependency.  as such, i made 9.11-r4 just always install the script.
