Scilab 3.0 is going to be released soon. This ebuild installs the first release candidate, recently released. The ebuild has been updated from previous versions: - adding a dependency to app-text/sablotron; - using the atlas USE flag as suggested in bug 45189 (which should therefore be solved); - a more thorough and to-the-point message appears if a "bad" version of scilab is detected; - applying a patch by Stephane Mottelet to allow use of Scilab from the command line without loss of functionality; - compilation of the xml manual; - final suggestion on how to set up the printers in Scilab. The ebuild compiles well on a pentium 4 with CFLAGS=CXXFLAGS=-O3 -march=pentium4 -pipe; please test (but do commit, otherwise there will be no time for bug reports before 3.0 is released!) Cheers, -Federico

Created attachment 31996 [details] New ebuild with gtk2 implementation This ebuild includes compile-time dependency on libxslt, and the possibility, not present in scilab 2.7, to use gtk2. If a gtk2 USE flag is set, gtk flag is ignored. PLEASE TEST THE GTK2 OPTION! I don't use Gnome, and there is a dependency with libgtkhtml which would have forced me to install it. That would have taken too much time.
Created attachment 31998 [details] Fixed typos in comment Of course I've noticed the typos only _after_ posting... Sorry, but if I don't correct them now I'll forget next time too. :-/
Bug outdated as 3.0 final has come out.
