hia,

i have just made an ebuild of grun which is a tiny yet powerful 
gtk-based application launcher such as those found in gnome 
and kde, but suitable for all window managers (especially for 
fluxbox users as there grun can easily be bound to a keychain 
which makes it very convenient to execute commands)

how to test/install it:

save the attachment to the current local directory and do as 
root:

tar xzvf grun-0.8.1.ebuild.tar.gz -C /usr/portage
emerge --pretend grun
emerge grun

if you like to customize it, read the hints displayed (all you 
need is explained) and the man-page

have fun

dan

disclaimer: i have tested it thorougly on my box and it worked 
fine. nevertheless it's not in cvs yet (thus still an 
"inofficial beta" ;)

Thanks!  It's not obvious, but bugs.gentoo.org is the place to submit
new ebuilds; developers are pretty much guaranteed to see it there.

Why not 0.9.2?  That's the package on debian:
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/grun.html

yeah, i know :) especially as mailinglists do not scale very 
well.

really? i mean, not only the core-developers, but all who are 
interested in testing new ebuilds? how can i set up my bugzilla 
account so that i get informed of all new ebuild submissions?
i just think it's desirable to have as many (willing) people 
test ebuild submissions as possible before the ebuilds flow into 
cvs.

i wrongly thought that 0.8.1 is the latest version, thx for the 
hint! :) unfortunately the original homepage of grun is down but 
obviously i would have better taken a look at debian.org than 
freebsd.org (perhaps a general advice ;)

the new ebuild is available at 
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1043

I'm not too familiar with Bugzilla, but if there's no ways of getting
notifications on new ebuilds then maybe a separate mailing list for
ebuild discussions and announcements would be an idea?

I've just started submitting my own ebuilds, and I would really like to
discuss making ebuilds with others (and get access to new builds, of
course).

/me agrees. i hope you gentooers out there do not mind if i 
continue to announce new ebuilds here until a nice solution is 
found ;)

those who would like to test xtoolwait, please see 
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1054

Nope, announcing new ebuilds is fine.  You'll get better exposure
for your ebuild, though, if you announce on -user instead of -dev.
