[gentoo-dev] New category for (libre)office extensions: office-ext ?

Hiya, 

there's a growing culture of libreoffice extensions, and (with the help of an 
eclass prepared by scarabeus) it would be nice to get some of them into the 
portage tree. Now we have to decide where to put them.

Suggestion: new category office-ext

What do you think?

Cheers, Andreas

No preference myself, but we already have e.g. app-emacs and www-apache
which (I guess?) reflect the fact that emacs lies under app-foo and
apache under www-bar.

That would suggest app-libreoffice?

office-plugins, to follow suit.

+1 on app-libreoffice if they are only for LibreOffice. Can those extensions
work with app-office/openoffice-bin?

This may be confusing as people would expect these plugins to work
with both {open,libre}office packages. If these plugins are just for
libreoffice then I would prefer app-libreoffice like other people have
already suggested

I've collected information and the extensions (should) work with any office 
variant, openoffice and libreoffice. To be more precise, they should work with 
anything that uses the so-called "uno bridge". 

This is why I like the new category "office-plugins" best... and would like to 
implement that one. 

Any additional objections?

Cheers, Andreas

Is there any chance that there will be more than one or two office-*
categories in future? If not, I think that we shouldn't introduce a
new category prefix for this. The category should be named app-*
instead.

How about app-ooo, following the naming of the virtual?

I prefer app-plugins even if it is broader.

Well... we're already breaking that rule by having lxde-base, perl-core, sec-
policy... and kde-*, rox-*, xfce-* exist only twice. So I would not handle 
this requirement too strongly. 

(I could e.g. imagine categories office-templates, office-filters, but that's 
right now pure speculation.)

app-ooo kind of minimizes the "ah yes I know what goes there" effect.

After some discussion with Ulrich on IRC, we settled on the name 
	"app-officeext", 
which we'll be able to fill with a couple of hundred (open|libre)office 
extensions then... :) I guess this is a compromise that we all can live with.

So, I'll implement that tonight.

Cheers, 
Andreas

And committed. 

There's already a first package in there, app-officeext/texmaths - a LaTeX 
replacement for the LO formula editor, generating embedded svg. Give it a try, 
it's really cool!

There's also app-office/ooextras since a long time.
