[gentoo-dev] mask metacity

[Bjarke Sørensen]

Uhm, shouldn't metacity be masked for now?

Is has some dependancies that are masked.

Well, people who -want- metacity ( you know, you can install it without
Gnome2 ) should know what they are after, and to have it masked then
would be "not fun", besides, the only reason gtk+ 2 is masked is all the
packages in portage that depend on the wrong versions of gtk+ ..

I think that a list of these packages would be very nice so that those
of us who have nothing better to do could start fixing these ebuild to
depend on the right versions. Also a "Orphaned Ebuilds" list would be
nice as well. :)

Orphaned I dont know about, but the gtk+ ones...
grep -r ">=x11-libs/gtk+"  /usr/portage/
grep -r " x11-libs/gtk+ " /usr/portage/


there you go :)

So which one is correct? Should it depend on "=x11-libs/gtk+-1.2"?

[gentoo-dev] emerge search

[Sean P. Kane]

emerge search seems to only search the name of the ebuild. Is there
currently any way to also search the description? And if not is there
any reason not to implement this? Doing something like 'emerge search
irc' does not return BitchX as an example. And something like icc
'Intel's cc compiler' might be hard to search for since you may 
not know the Gentoo agreed upon name of icc and simply search for intel.


Thanks,
Sean

hrmm, don't take any offence to this but bitchx is in /usr/portage/net-irc. 
and what if some one does a description search for "a"?

grep doesn't disallow you to do a:
grep -r "a" /*

does it?

If people want to be stupid, let them. I think an added option of this nature 
can be useful. I do think though a separate search command is more 
appropriate though.
