Hello Gokturk,

I'd made (5) attemps at becoming a gentoo dev. The dev working with me,
always drop out of support because of backchannel (dev) issues. Mainly,
I hate IRC and a strong (vehement) gentoo user that believes the lack
of an automated intstall for basic gentoo (default) amd/intel installs
is a source of great ridicule for gentoo. Particularly from the hundreds 
  of college age kids I try to recruit to gentoo.

That said, if YOU are will to be my mentor, I take radeontop,
as I have many old systems with ATI/radeon cards, including fanless
R600 cards.

Is torrentinfo look inactive/dead? If it is useful and folks are still
using it, I'll take that too, although I'll have to set up a torrent 
system, if nobody else is interested in this one.

PS, where is the latest draft of the devmanual and related documents, 
related to EAPI-6.

I thought this list was dead. It be nice if proxy folks posted here for
easy reading of common issues proxy maint folks encounter.

IRC is not a requirement for working with proxy-maint. It's only
encouraged. I'm fine with most other communication mediums in this
context.

I am currently mentoring someone else and my schedule wouldn't allow a
second person. That being said, I would be happy to be your primary
point of contact and support if you are willing to maintain radeontop.
I think this is a better approach than just reading bunch of docs and
trying to "wing it" with the recruitment application.

Unfortunately, I've assigned that package to another
proxied-maintainer this morning per his maintainership request.

Between proxy-maint, mentors, gentoostats, GSoC, graduate school and
real life issues, devmanual doesn't get the attention it deserves
unfortunately. I'll try to deprioritize proxy-maint and mentors in the
coming months to pay more attention to the others hopefully.

I'm going through inactive proxied-maintainers and retiring them after
a certain timeout, so expect more emails like this in the coming months.

I'm fine with posting questions to this list and "anyone" can respond
with info and suggestions, if that works. That way, it's easy to read
for anyone interested in package rescue.

No problem. Is there a suggested reading list to get current with 
proxy-maint, gentoo-github basics and other useful docs for proxy work?

I already have radeontop (9999) installed on one system. Quick peek I 
did not find anything pending, but I'm not the swiftest hack via
github, so some trick on checking up on what need to be done with any 
package, via github, would we welcome news. I'm mostly an old C/bash
hack (cvs), so you know. Let me know, when you can, what I've missed 
with radeontop, can some quick syntax to check what needs to be done
on any given package I proxy-maint.

I've not had much problem with EAPI-4 or -5 ebuilds but I need to read
the up on what's new and trending with EAPI-6.....

I've been mostly working on ebuilds via /usr/local/portage and 
/var/lib/layman/ for overlays.


I do need to learn git(github) better. That's  my biggest issue.

I would like to raise a point about this list.
From what I recall the g-p-m project list/alias gets more traffic.

I unsubscribed from that when the real ML was formed.
I would take a small bet that most users (esp older ones) are
still using the project alias address to discuss matters.

Might be wise to clean up that alias so its just devs and tell users
to use the correct and archived ML.

Just my 10c hkd

There's a Gentoo Github Guide here:
  https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_Github

Let's try to be more goal oriented here and try to establish a
development environment first. If you want to learn how to utilize
Github for pull requests:

- Login to your account, browse to 'https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo'
and click the 'Fork' button on the upper right
- If you haven't added your SSH key to Github, do so before proceeding:
https://help.github.com/articles/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account/
- Clicking the fork button should redirect you to the page of your fork
of the repository. Click the 'Clone or download' on the screen, copy the
URI (should look something like 'git@github.com:gktrk/gentoo.git').
- Clone your fork to an appropriate directory in the local machine (I
use "~/stuff/gentoo") by typing 'git clone <URI> <DIR>' where <URI> is
the URI you obtained from the previous step and <DIR> is the destination
directory. For example "git clone git@github.com:gktrk/gentoo.git
~/stuff/gentoo".

Looks like radeontop has a new release (v1.0) according to:
https://github.com/clbr/radeontop/releases. Now let's do a dummy
practice with this fresh dev environment:

- make sure you have app-portage/repoman installed
- cd into the radeontop package directory in the repo:
    $ cd ~/stuff/gentoo/x11-apps/radeontop
- For simplicity, copy the 0.9 ebuild as 1.0:
    $ cp radeontop-0.9.ebuild radeontop-1.0.ebuild
  It needs more work but we're going to ignore that for now
- Regenerate the manifest:
    $ repoman manifest
  It will download the tarball for the version 1.0 and record its checksum
- Let's do a bare-bone QA check:
    $ repoman full
  Uh-oh, it spits 6 'dependency.missingslot' and 1 'ebuild.notadded'
warnings for me. Let's worry about fixing them later.
- Now let's do a runtest, it'd be nice to know if this thing works out
of the box:
    $ ebuild radeontop-1.0.ebuild install
  This command will go through all the ebuild phases up until
src_install() in the correct order: pkg_pretend() -> pkg_setup() ->
src_unpack() -> src_prepare() -> src_configure() -> src_compile() ->
src_test() -> src_install().
- Let's eyeball the installation image:
    $ find /var/tmp/portage/x11-apps/radeontop-1.0/image/
  I see 'radeontop' under sbin, there's a so-file in lib etc.
- It compiles fine for me, let's perform a clean:
    $ ebuild radeontop-1.0.ebuild clean
  It will remove all the stuff under '/var/tmp/portage/x11-apps/radeontop'
- Let's commit this. There are two ways to go about it. We prefer the
following:
    $ git add radeontop-1.0.ebuild
    $ repoman commit
  If you don't have a PGP key set, repoman will refuse to commit. If you
don't know how to set it up, you can commit the following way:
    $ git add radeontop-1.0.ebuild Manifest
    $ git commit
  Either way, it will pop-up an editor for you. Make sure the first line
looks like the following:
    x11-apps/radeontop: bump to 1.0 -- DO NOT MERGE, TEST PURPOSES ONLY
- Let's push our changes on our fork back to github:
    $ git push
- We're done with the command line, browse to the page of our fork on
github. You should be able to see your commit on that page. Click
'Compare' that is under the green 'Clone or download' button.
- Now you are looking at the total changes you've made. Click the green
'Create pull request' button on the screen.
- This will create you a template for the pull request and fill in the
title for you. In the body where it says 'Leave a comment', type the
following:
    Not ready for merge yet. Pinging @gktrk.
- Click the button 'Create pull request'.

Once you get to this stage, I'll help you out with the rest. This setup
is far from being optimal and we will need to change many other things
in the future. For now, it should give you some of the basics.

I just checked the alias file. There are no users in it. We simply
haven't had much traffic recently. I suspect most of our communications
happen on IRC or bugzilla. We've received one or two emails on the alias
about bumps but that's about it.

Hey Gokturk,

This is great info; and I'll work on this on the weekend and post
back, as I'm backed up a wee bit atm.
