she's not dead...
she is waiting for me and my spare time

Unclepine with these MODS is DANGEROUS!!!
all those ignored packages are important.

DONT trust unclepine if your portage is UNSTABLE

hi xchris, is the development of unclepine still alive? I'm really missing an update that fully supports portage 2.1.

Thanks.

Since there are lots of different patches across the entire thread, could somebody just post the latest version with all patches considered? Unclepine version 0.2, so to say? Thanks alot...

Does it mean you're really going to make this tool work with the current portage?

One more thing. Does it REALLY REALLY not break dependencies like emerge --depclean?

right I got something working...

first problem: portage-2.1 broke into separate modules some functions - this is fixed by my original patch
second problem: as Xchris stated IF a package doesn't provide anything then a PROVIDE file isn't created in the database - cause unclepine to cause an exception.

these two things have been fix and have been tested with unclepine -sw ONLY!!!! I have gone through each of the entry to ensure their sanity (ie cross-ref with the relevant ebuild) and it spews out good stuff
a emerge --depclean before as well as after (and a emerge world -uvDp) didn't throw any anomylys up so all is good

Please bear in mind that although I can code in python I am not upto speed in what is in the python code used in PORTAGE (or most of what is in unclepine). I have picked up a fair bit and trust what I have done for my use of unclepine BUT I am equally fairly comforable with what is on my system and what is ment to be where and why.

if other aspects of unclepine do not work I will try to put a band-aid over it until xchris has some time to upgrade it to portage-2.1

@xchris hope you dont mind I tagged my handle into the patchset

have fun

What's the current state of the script?
Does it work with portage 2.1.1?
If so, could anybody share a working version of it?

Thanks is advance.
