we have a new herd called ayatana (i'm currently the only member, but |
2 |
anyone intrested is free to join) |
3 |
|
4 |
it's aimed at maintaining the ubuntu -invented libraries many apps tend |
5 |
to use thesedays: |
6 |
|
7 |
$ grep -r "herd.*ayatana" */*/metadata.xml |
8 |
dev-libs/libappindicator/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
9 |
dev-libs/libdbusmenu/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
10 |
dev-libs/libdbusmenu-qt/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
11 |
dev-libs/libindicate/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
12 |
dev-libs/libindicate-qt/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
13 |
dev-libs/libindicator/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
14 |
gnome-extra/indicator-applet/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
15 |
net-im/indicator-messages/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
16 |
x11-misc/notify-osd/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
17 |
xfce-extra/xfce4-indicator-plugin/metadata.xml: <herd>ayatana</herd> |
18 |
|
19 |
and perhaps x11-misc/glipper |

summary: |
22 |
|
23 |
- keep all the libs and apps using them in sync, since upstream changes |
24 |
API so often, when you bump one library, you have to bump or patch them all |
25 |
|
26 |
- ditch gtk+-2.0 and move all libraries to gtk+-3.0, this will likely |
27 |
mean lastriting indicator-applet and glipper |
28 |
|
29 |
- add more of the project into portage after gtk+-3.0 migration is done: |

36 |
much to happen "too soon" |
