I haven't spent much time on beets lately. Current version in tree is 1.1.0, |
| 2 |
upstream is at 1.3.1. I have the ebuild more or less ready, but it still needs |
| 3 |
testing/cleanups before I'd be willing to commit to tree. I would *really* |
| 4 |
appreciate someone taking the package (and several deps, see end of my email). |
| 5 |
I'd still help out if needed as secondary maintainer. |
| 6 |
|

Only missing dependency I could see is version bump for mutagen[1]. Upstream has |
| 8 |
quite extensive testsuite, plugin architecture which is great for USE flags and |
| 9 |
Adrian (sampsyo) generally reacts fast and accepts patches that fix or simplify |
| 10 |
packaging work. In other words...ideal upstream. |

Dependency chain that is related and maintained by me: |

dev-python/pyechonest |
| 15 |
dev-python/munkres |
| 16 |
dev-python/unidecode |
| 17 |
dev-python/python-musicbrainz-ngs |
| 18 |
dev-python/audioread |
| 19 |
dev-python/pylast |
| 20 |
dev-python/pyacoustid |
| 21 |
dev-python/bluelet |
| 22 |
media-sound/rgain |
| 23 |
media-sound/beets |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Currently there are 2 bugs for beets, one is version bump[2] of beets itself and |
| 26 |
the second[3] is request for replacement of ffmpeg with virtual requires |
| 27 |
(which is a bit tricky and would likely need upstream work). |
| 28 |
|

Any takers? Feel free to add yourself to the top of metadata.xml and ping me on |
| 30 |
IRC. Unless I'll find some other primary maintainer I'll move to package to |
| 31 |
maintainer-wanted so that bugs don't accidentally end up in black hole. |
