Ebuild for gnome-screensaver-0.0.2

initial ebuild for gnome-screensaver (ver. 0.0.2), located in
gnome-extra/gnome-screensaver

[Comment 2 Joe McCann (RETIRED) 2005-04-05 20:16:45 UTC]

I don't believe this is worth adding at this point since it is still at an alpha/beta state. It still uses dbus-0.2.x which probably won't go over well when we move to 0.3.x. It also doesn't have any accessibility support yet which is the most important reason for switching this dialogue over to a modern toolkit.

I like the package but don't feel we should add it in its current state.

gnome-screensaver-0.0.8 ebuild

although it is too early i would like to keep the ebuild up to date and working
:)

Attached is a new ebuild using the gnome2 inherit. It also installs the pam
module in the correct place without sanbox violation. Schemas also get
installed correctly for me but might not for others.

Comments fixes are welcome

It still needs some cleaning up but it work for me ;-)

Added dep for dbus-0.3x

[Comment 5 Sander Sweers 2005-09-10 03:37:17 UTC]

A copy and rename to version 0.0.10 works but i have problems getting it to work
with dbus.

THe error is:
** (gnome-screensaver:29540): CRITICAL **: couldn't connect to session bus:
Unable to determine the address of the message bus
** Message: set DPMS timeouts: 7200 7200 14400.
** (gnome-screensaver:29540): WARNING **: failed to register with the message bus

I can get it to work with dbus if i open a shell and do:

dbuslaunch="`which dbus-launch 2>/dev/null`"
eval `$dbuslaunch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID

Before running gnome-screensaver

Adding depend on bug 77504 as this solves my dbus connec problems.

ebuild for 0.0.17

In the spirit of keeping the ebuild updated, here's one for 0.0.17

I simplified the USE flags, removed shadow and dpms as they're not standard (I
think), default to use it. Also the dbus dep was optional on the ebuilds above,
I think that was wrong. Added DOCS and simplified the ebuild.

This is now in the gentopia overlay. Better to use that instead of the ebuild in
this bug report.
