Description adr 2013-04-03 13:01:43 UTC
Cynthiune moved to the GAP project, and a new release is available.

--- http://www.nongnu.org/gap/cynthiune/ ----
Version 1.0.0:
This is the first GAP release of Cynthiune. Notably changes: 
- many build impprovements
- New OpenBSD Sndio audio output backend bundle
- New libao based AO audio output backend bundle
- New Linux ALSA audio output backend bundle
- Windows support updated
- Macintosh supported again, (10.3 or later)
- disabled MusicBrainz Support for now
- many other minor bug fixes
----

I made some changes to the last dead Gentoo ebuild from CVS. It compiles and runs fine. So far I only found it crashing on opening FLAC files, but FLAC can be disabled for now.

I did some fuzzy checking on the last patches for the cynthiune-0.9.5-r5.ebuild (the best I can do, and that's not very well).
- It seems to me that the reason for the "set-macro.patch", "NSMutableDictionary.patch" and "as-needed.patch" still exist. The "as-needed.patch" should change a bit to follow the same logic.
- The "NSCellExtensions.patch" is already in the source code.
- I didn't use the "NSWindow.patch" and "gnustep-make-2.patch".
- The "flac-1.1.3.patch" and "libmpcdec.patch" can't be used, because the source code changed a lot. But that is just a good sign, isn't it? :)

It would be nice to have this app back in Portage or the GNUstep overlay. Thank you so much!

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the report and initial work! This has been on my TODO-list since I saw the GAP announcement.

I'm working on a few cleanups to the ebuild (EAPI 5, ...), then it can be restored in tree
Comment 4 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2013-04-04 18:37:57 UTC
Build system was reworked a bit upstream (especially on libs and as-needed), and compilation fixes are not needed anymore, so last patches are good to go too

For flac, I masked the USE-flag instead (so the ebuild does not need modifications when this is fixed). Did you notify upstream on this btw?

Anyway, cynthiune is back in tree, enjoy!

Thanks! I just recently discovered GNUstep. I really love it.
I didn't contact upstream.
