 |
|
When I am browsing categories on the site, how do I go to the next page?
I know this seems like a dumb question, but when I go to a category, I can browse the first 10 items, and I cannot find a link or button to go to the next page.

Well... that just blows...
Whenever I get bored I had fun going through and browsing what games I could try out.
Is there a utility that can be used in it's place? (something that displays description of the packages as well)

ls /usr/portage/${catagory} or eix?

I held off saying anything before I got -0.6.0 released and in the tree.
But here goes...
Porthole can give you much of the same information including an ebuild table, right on your computer from your synced tree and overlays (no bandwidth required). You can browse categories and packages easily. It also can give you more information about dependencies, USE flag settings etc. as it pertains to your system. I think you could find it great for browsing, even makes it easy for setting user configs and emerging.

Is there a Qt port?

No, sorry, no QT port of porthole. But it does run in the QT-gtk theme??? or something like that. It does not need a ton of gnome deps. only gtk+, libglade, pgtk & pygobject (python interface libs to gtk+). Portato has a QT option, I'm not sure it is up to date though, since it is also mostly developed in gtk.
