I made 2 new releases of Fvwm-Crystal in a short time. 3.1.7 was a major update and bug fixes. It should fix bug4643. The changes was great and this introduced new bugs. They are fixed in 3.1.12 and new features was added as well. The dependencies have changed a little. I will post an ebuild later. Reproducible: Always
The last numbers was hidden: bug464364
Created attachment 347448 [details] ebuild for FVWM-Crystal-3.1.12
Created attachment 347450 [details, diff] Makefile patch This patch is still needed but it is smaller.

It is a minor issue I can see with the addons directory. Most of the files here are scripts or resources files. By default, they get installed into $(prefix)/share/fvwm-crystal/addons. On gentoo, they get installed into $(prefix)/share/doc/${PF}/addons and get compressed. Only one of the files in addons is documentation, the other files are scripts or resources files. They are mean to be used by the user, fvwm-crystal will not use them directly. The advantage with $(prefix)/share/doc/${PF}/addons is the user will find them even if he doesn't read the einfo, but it will have to de-compress them in order to use them. I don't know which path better for those files, or if it is a gentoo policy for such files..
I am also not sure if x11-themes is the correct category. Some distributions are using a similar category, other are using a desktop category like x11-wm. As fact, fvwm-crystal is more than just an advanced fvwm theme, it provide features like automatic creation of the application menu with support of the freedesktop categories (long before the rewrite of fvwm-menu-desktop, which is not used by Crystal, it is why it have a python depend) including the additional categories. Crystal have several ways to manage the icons on the desktop, if the user choose Thunar, Fvwm-Crystal will manage itself the icons on the desktop, and Thunar will only be launched when clicking one of those icons. In some future release, I will maybe add a preference for the file manager to use. Last but not least, Fvwm-Crystal is able to provide not only a typical X feature like multiple desktop pages, but also and at the same time, a navigation system similar to the applications stack of the Amiga OS. In short, the user can put in full screen almost any application, and easily navigate between those full-screened applications and the desktop (on the current desktop page, I try global, but it was messy, it is simpler and better to use X bindings Alt+F<n> for that). One of the goals for 3.1.7 was to make this function to work well, and with 3.1.12 most of its bugs was fixed. For what I know, no other linux desktop provide that functionality. This is another and innovative (on X) way to navigate through desktop space, and when you are used to it, you feel this is a must have desktop feature.
Created attachment 347592 [details, diff] diff for fvwm-crystal-3.1.12.ebuild A new version of the ebuild. It introduce EPREFIX in the install phase and install the addons directory in ${EPREFIX}/usr/share/fvwm-crystal.
Created attachment 348562 [details] fvwm-crystal-3.1.12.ebuild Updated ebuild for fvwm-crystal
Created attachment 349344 [details, diff] build patch for 3.2.0 3.2.0 is out. This patch remove the COPYING file from the installation. The echo in make install is included upstream.
3.2.1 is out. It is mainly a bug fixes releases which address several installation related issues. However and fortunately, most of these issues doesn't concern portage. The same ebuild work fine. It is also a few new functions, like the preferences that work without restart, and a few new key bindings.
Are you willing to proxy-maintain this? http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/proxy-maintainers/
(In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #11) > Are you willing to proxy-maintain this? > http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/proxy-maintainers/ Sorry for the delay, I was buzzy with a lot of other things. For your question, sure I can do it. Regarding the ebuild, I don't understand why "python_replicate_script" is needed when the execs contain shebangs that point to the correct python version.
Will reassign to proxy-maint people then
(In reply to Dominique Michel from comment #12) > Regarding the ebuild, I don't understand why "python_replicate_script" is > needed when the execs contain shebangs that point to the correct python > version. In Fvwm-Crystal-3.2.2, the shebangs are changed from #!/usr/bin/env python2 to #!/usr/bin/env python2.7. The python_replicate_script line fail with * A file does not seem to have a supported shebang: * file: /var/tmp/portage/x11-themes/fvwm-crystal-9999/image//usr/bin/fvwm-crystal.apps-python2.7 * shebang: #!/usr/bin/env python2.7 What is best, to revert that change in the source code, or to remove python_replicate_script in the ebuild?
Dominique, version 3.2.2 released a couple of days ago. Can we please get an updated ebuild for that ? ( I assume the build patch is not needed anymore ).
Created attachment 351726 [details] ebuild for fvwm-crystal-3.2.3 3.2.3 is out. After looking at other packages, and as they don't install the Copying file, I changed it into the source. So, the build patch is not needed any more. I also reverted the python shebang to the same value than before (python2).
This needs fixing in the future: x11-themes/fvwm-crystal/fvwm-crystal-3.0.6-r2.ebuild: please migrate from 'python' to 'python-r1 / python-single-r1 / python-any-r1' on line: 9 Committed.
