Thanks :)
Can you explain me this "etcproposals" "noroot" USE flags ?


etcproposals: Installs the etc-proposals plugin. (Etc-Proposals is a graphical replacement for etc-update - see https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-543876.html). This plugin will run etcproposals after each emerge process.
noroot: Some users have built their system in a way, that it does not need root to run emerge. For these users this plugin can be used, so Portato will not complain about it. (This plugin is just a workaround and untested ;))
syntax: Enables syntax-highlighting for the ebuild window for the Gtk frontend. (Qt has syntax highlighting by default).

Hope, I could help you ;)

btw etc-proposals 1.2 is out.
ebuild is here: http://prdownload.berlios.de/etc-proposals/etcproposals-1.2.ebuild
if you want to add it to your overlay.

1.2 also includes the qt4 frontend written by Jeremy_Z.

New Release: 0.7.3

Changes from version 0.7.0:
- Added systray and desktop entries
- Added confirmation dialogs for quitting while the emerge queue is not empty
- Ability to show packages by installation status
- Moved the gtk-syntax-highlight plugin to another package
- Improved QtTerminal a bit

Known Issues:
The QtTerminal is not the best one. Especially while emerging large packages, where a lot of information has to be written in a short time, Qt tends to freeze. Solutions are welcome ;)

Great Utility!!

Feature suggestion:
add the currently action title (Emerging/Unmerging/Syncing) with the package name to the App title bar. (Like when you emerge in a terminal)

Useful when minimized or when its running and you can see what is currently merging/unmerging in the console.

So far I had not problems with it.

Edit: When an emerge/unmerge/sync action is over, Return to the package Tab or Something instead of staying in the terminal.
Also auto refresh the Package tree after the action is finish to reflect changes.

Keep up the good work!

It is updated - but not refreshed. Just click once again on the category and you will notice the changes.

I' using
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--ask --verbose --changelog" in my "/etc/make.conf"
Portato give's me this message when I try to install something through it.-
Quote:
!!! "--ask" should only be used in a terminal. Exiting.

Can You do something about it , enabling --ask option in portato or omitting it by default ?

Important: For some reasons the Qt-Frontend does not work with PyQt4-4.2 and sip-4.6.

and I was trying to figure out why the search didn't work anymore...
I'll downgrade for a bit then. :-)

Some more things I'd like to see (I only use the Qt4 interface):
- Kuroo can show the reason why a package is masked, along with the changelog. How hard would that be to implement ?
- The Qt frontend resizes when you show a package with a long description. There's a bug, when the description is is that long that it makes Portato larger than the size of my screen. I think it's best if Portato just keeps it's size, and a little widget appears when you hover the description, when it doesn't fit on the screen?
- Portato doesn't seem to remember how I resize the interface...
- Changelog for the packages itself, that seems a tad harder though, not sure if it's worth your effort.

That's all I can think of now :P
thank you :-)

If I remember correctly, there is a portage function doing exactly this ... - so no problem. But I have to think about, where to put this information

I just enabled word-wrapping, so Qt should wrap the label, if it gets too long :) Could you give me an example package where this occurs, so I can check?

Correct. I have to see how to implement this ...

One more thing, the un-emerge queue doesn't always get cleared. At least, it's behaviour isn't consistent with the behaviour of the (re)emerge queue. If you need more info, I'll unemerge a few things to try ...

app-vim/gentoo-syntax

The description is longer than the default size of the interface, and I can't resize it to anything smaller than shorter than the description.

Uuh - that is supposed to be a bug. More info would be nice :) (and perhaps have a look at the debug output in the console).

Note: You have a much smaller resolution, than I have (1400x1050) ... Trying to make Qt a little smarter tomorrow :)

I applied for getting Portato into the sunrise overlay. Therefore some changes had to be done for the ebuilds:

- portatosourceview moved from "app-portage" to "dev-util"
- noroot has been renamed to userpriv

To have the version numbers in sync between the two overlays, I have not incremented the revision. I would ask you to update your ebuilds via
Code:
layman -s portato
to avoid later conflicts. :)

Okay - portato is now in the sunrise overlay. If you are using it already, you can now deinstall the portato-overlay unless you want to use the 9999 (svn) version.

No, dont build python without USE=threads, that breaks lots and lots of python stuff.

That's why they renamed the flag to "nothreads" :) ... ==> just upgrade to python-2.4.4-r4 and the issue is done

What useflags did you take for python? You have disabled threads (at least it seems like that) ... and w/o threads no GUI will work ;) (edit:/ remerge pygobject and pygtk after you enabled threads - just to be sure)

emerge pygobject pygtk

You SHOULDN'T use nothreads flag !

Ehm - I think we missed each other ^^ ... do not set "nothreads" for any reason :). - I meant, that you should enable support for Threads (either by enabling "threads" in <python-2.4.4-r4 or by disabling "nothreads" in >=python-2.4.4-r4)

--------------------------------------
I did the following things in the svn-version:

Portato now shows the masking reason as a tooltip of the "Masked" checkbox.

Vegan wrote:

- "--ask", "-a", "--pretend", "-p" are now stripped from EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS.

Additionally (as I am currently using portato on my desktop which currently only supports 1024x768), I saw, that I have to redesign the frontend a little ... with Qt I cannot even see the complete Preferences-Dialog... 8O
And: As there are requests for more informations in the package view, I have to redesign it in some way too ... currently I added a label showing the path to the overlay this package is - and want to show the link to package-homepage too. - And the Changelog ... and and and ...

/edit: And the qt-frontend does not want to work on my newly installed desktop box ... strange ... for the moment I blame PyQt4 and sip
