[gentoo-dev] The app-misc/beagle in portage is seriously outdated!

[Shaochun Wang]

Hi all:

The app-misc/beagle is portage is seriously outdated! I remember that
the developer of this beagle ebuild posted a mail saying that he/she had
no time to maintain this package and looked for new maintainer.

After such a long time, nothing happened to the beagle ebuild. How to
change this situation? Is the original maintainer is still active now?

BTW, besides the beagle bump request in the bugzilla of Gentoo, is there
any way to let us normal users get beagle up to date?

Create your own overlay and put the ebuild there, maybe try to have it 
in Sunrise, maybe Daniel could proxy-maintain the ebuild for you, should 
you prove to know enough both about ebuilds and beagle :)

Proxy-maintain? I think that guy is retired sneakly from Gentoo. What
about proxy maintaining?

BTW, how to prove I have known enough about ebuilds and beagle?

Anyway, thank you for your reply!

proxy-maintaining doesn't necessarily rely on the original maintainer.
Although it would be best to find someone that actually uses mono to
test it :)

Btw, shouldn't this package be under the freedesktop/dotnet herd ?

apply to the ebuild quiz :)

I can take it if dsd agrees, as I use it but without the gtk interface.

Please go right ahead. Also I recommend working with Nirbheek Chauhan 
who would be an ideal candidate for a maintainer/co-maintainer but when 
I last asked didn't have enough time to go through recruitment.

Thanks!

Im sure that there are more than a few dev that would be willing to 
proxy maintain the package, if a user is prepared to standup and take 
responsibility for it.  Currently it seems that the package doesn't 
build for everyone ( by having a quick look at #201093 ) and this is 
something that any maintainer would have to rectify [1].

If your prepared to do it there are plenty of resources to help you 
along.  Checkout http://devmanual.gentoo.org and jump on 
irc://freenode/#gentoo-dev-help if you have any ebuild related questions.

package works for them, that it works.  This sadly isn't the case.

This is entirely my fault.
I'm a part of Beagle upstream, and had volunteered to proxy maintain
it. I was the one who was supposed to contact Petteri Räty
(Betelguese) after he had volunteered to proxy maintain it (via a
reply to dsd's email) several weeks ago.
However, I ended up getting busy with other things, procrastinating
this, and in the end majorly slacking in getting Beagle fixed (though
I did update the ebuild on the gentoo bug occasionally)

Beagle 0.3.3 itself compiles just fine, but yelp and nautilus don't
compile with beagle support (beagle USE flag) because libbeagle got
split from Beagle in 0.3, it's API changed, and the version number got
bumped. Work is in progress to fix yelp with the new libbeagle, but no
such progress has been made in nautilus.
Probably the "beagle" USE flag in nautilus and yelp has to be made to
depend on 0.2.18 since it doesn't work with >=0.3

All in all, I take complete blame for this mess.

/me feels majorly guilty

For me, everything including nautilus compiles cleanly with beagle
support, but not yelp!

Yeah, nautilus compiles with the new libbeagle, but silently falls
back to manual (non-beagle) search when you try searching from within
nautilus.

Please take this off the general development mailing list and to one of
