[gentoo-dev] Packages up for grabs
Hi, I have a number of packages in which I have lost interest and which I no longer want to maintain: app-admin/hddtemp app-misc/linux-logo dev-util/oprofile net-libs/libtlen sci-mathematics/gimps sci-mathematics/xmds sci-misc/vitables sys-apps/fakechroot sys-apps/fakeroot-ng sys-apps/memtest86+ www-client/elinks x11-misc/xfractint All the packages require relatively low maintenance and currently have no open bugs (with the exception on memtest86+ and bug #339691). I will reassign them to maintainer-needed in about a week. If you want to take them, please just add yourself to metadata.xml directly. Thanks, -- Michal Januszewski http://people.gentoo.org/spock
[gentoo-dev] Packages up for grabs
Hi, I have a bunch of packages that I no longer use and have little to no motivation to maintain. I will be replacing myself with maintainer-needed in their metadata.xml in a few days. If you want to take them, feel free to edit metadata.xml directly -- no need to ask for permission :) > app-accessibility/powiedz > app-i18n/man-pages-pl > app-text/clara > net-analyzer/chaosreader > net-analyzer/gspoof > net-im/ekg > net-im/gnugadu > net-im/tleenx2 > net-libs/libtlen These are all low maintenance packages with no open bugs, the exception being ekg, for which there is an open request for a live ebuild (bug 300017). Thanks, -- Michal Januszewski http://people.gentoo.org/spock
[gentoo-dev] Maintainer needed for dev-util/biew
Hi, As I'm longer using biew in any way and don't really have any interest in maintaining it, I'm looking for someone to take it over. The package has no open bugs and is seldom updated, but could use a version bump. If you are willing to maintain it, feel free to remove me from metadata.xml and put yourself there instead.

Not that I know of. I need these libs to be compiled against klibc,
not glibc. AFAIK I just have to build them along with the rest of
fbcondecor_helper.

Thanks, I've just submitted a change which should fix all of these in the
latest ebuild.
Best regards.

As fbsplash does not work splashutils is a _userspace_ splash. fbsplash isn't, but then it only provides the "verbose" mode (background pictures on system consoles) and there is no way of doing that in userspace (other than implementing the whole console system in userspace, which has indeed been proposed and might get done one day). > with all video cards and last time I checked the whole framebuffer in Which fb driver doesn't it work with? > kernel is not actively maintained. It depends on the definition of "actively" :) But to say that fbdev is unmaintained would be, IMO, an exaggeration.

[gentoo-dev] Last rites for media-gfx/fbi
Hello, I have just added media-gfx/fbi to package.mask and will remove it from the tree in about 30 days. The program is no longer developed upstream in its original form. Instead, it is now a part of the 'fbida' project, which provides a bunch of simple applications for viewing and editing images. fbida is available as media-gfx/fbida.

[gentoo-dev] Last rites for dev-util/bitkeeper
Hi, The guys at BitMover stopped providing free versions of bitkeeper almost half a year ago. Currently only an evaluation version is available on their website. I don't think there is any point in having ebuilds for evaluation versions in Portage. The package (dev-util/bitkeeper) is currently masked. If nobody objects, I'll remove it from the tree next Saturday (2006-02-11).
