[gentoo-user] portage - xcdroast

[John Dangler]

Anyone know why the xcdroast was taken off the mirrors? 
There is a bug entered regarding xcdroast not being able to be downloaded
(which I got when I did emerge xcdroast).
It seems that the only reason for it not being there is either because
there's something _really_ wrong with it.

Or, does anyone have another recommendation for cd/dvd graphical frontend in
gnome?

Gnomebaker seems pretty OK-- quite nice, actually, though I can't seem
to make new folders in the layout (I'd have to make them in the regular
filesystem then copy them to the layout), but I didn't explore it all
that thoroughly.

I think I'll stick with K3b for the time being; you may not realize that
it can be built -kde and -arts (though you'll still have to install
kdelibs for it to run). It remains the most fully-featured GUI burning
program out there.

You might also try Nero for Linux (GTK1 interface). It pretty much does
most of what Nero for Windows does, certainly it handles all the basic
functions with aplomb (though not as much aplomb as K3b), although I
didn't really check to see how it handles the 'extra' features of Nero
Pro (does it encode video and audio, and what formats does it allow to
do so).

All available from Portage (though some may be ~arch masked).

HTH,
Holly

I did an 'rsync'  2 days ago  & 'emerge pv xcdroast' looks ok,
but perhaps the problem arises during the actual emerging.

Someone also suggested Graveman.

The problem with Gnomebaker, Graveman & K3b is that they all require
a host of sound-oriented dependencies.  Do they work with '--nodepends' ?

I've always used Xcdroast, so let's hope the problem is temporary,
tho' for ordinary data back-ups, it's not too difficult to use CLI.

You might instead try controlling your USE flags:

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] app-cdr/k3b-0.12.3  -arts -css -debug +dvdr +encode
+ffmpeg +flac +hal -kde +kdeenablefinal +mp3 -musepack +vorbis -xinerama 0

If compiled with -arts, -mp3 -musepack -vorbis, k3b won't make sound
itself, and won't be able to encode audio CD's, which is what it's using
the sound-related utilities for;

kB [ebuild   R   ] app-cdr/gnomebaker-0.4.2  -debug +dvdr +flac +mp3
+nls +vorbis 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] app-cdr/graveman-0.3.12_p4-r1  -debug -dvdr +flac +mp3
+nls +oggvorbis -sox 937 kB

If compiled -flac, -vorbis, -mp3, -oggvorbis and -sox, gnomebaker and
graveman will not be able to encode audio CDs, but will not add all the
'sound-related utilities'.

Since you seem to have no interest in burning audio CDs, this lack
should not be a problem for you.

Hope this helps,
Holly

In  /etc/make.conf , I had :

  USE="usb -alsa -arts -avi -encode -esd -mad -mikmod -oggvorbis -vorbis
       -oss -quicktime -xmms -berkdb -libg++ -mysql -postgres -f77 -nls"

So I've split 'oggvorbis' as recommended in Gentoo dox
& added '-mad -mp3 -sox' as you suggest
(I had an idea 'mp3' also covered movies, but investigation says not).

However after rebooting, not much has changed :

  root: root> emergeu -pv gnomebaker

  These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

  Calculating dependencies ...done!
  [ebuild N ] media-libs/libogg-1.1.2  410 kB

and

  [ebuild N ] app-cdr/k3b-0.11.24  -arts -debug -dvdr -encode -flac +kde -kdeenablefinal -mad +oggvorbis -xinerama 

I'm surprised to see '+oggvorbis' listed here,
as the flag is deprecated & I have '-ogg' & '-vorbis' in  make.conf .
I tried with 'USE="-oggvorbis"', but it suppressed only  2  packages.
Perhaps I need '-gnome', as I never want to use the Gnome desktop,
but I'm not sure if that would suppress other things elsewhere which I want.

Thanx for your customary detailed & sensible help,
but something is still not quite right.

Read the thread, the problem arises with downloading one of the source

Xcdroast is there it appears to be an associated file:- 
xcdroast-0.98_alpha15_new_configure.tar.gz
which is missing.
Xcdroast isn't a particularly Gnome frontend but there are others in 
app-cdr which are.
trying looking there. (packages.gentoo.org search on categories then 
select app-cdr)

How about gnomebaker? it's in portage.
I've used it a bit and it looked pretty good (though not as good as k3b :) )

NOOOO!

The way to do it would be:

# mkdir -p /etc/portage
# echo "app-cdr/gnomebaker ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
# emerge -avt gnomebaker

Don't use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS on the command line. This has been discussed over and 
over again. Search the archives.

as someone already said emerge eix

then run 

update-eix (you need to be root to do that part)

this creates some sort of very quick index to your ebuilds which is MUCH
faster to search than emerge -s.

then just use 

eix searchterm

to look for a package with searchterm in the name. It will also accept
regular expressions so:

eix ^kde$ will just return the package kde without kdemultimedia,
kdebase etc etc.

eix -S searchterm will also look in the description.

Another good script/program to try is esearch. Just "emerge esearch" then do 
"eupdatedb" to update the index of ebuilds. Then, the next time you do an 
"emerge sync", you can just type "esync" instead and it will update portage 
and your esearch database. It also prints out all of the updated packages in 
a nice fashion after the sync. With esearch, you can type "esearch 
searchterm" to search for packages. From my understanding (I have never 
really looked into it), it is basically locate that only searches through 
portage. It is one of my favorite gentoo tools and I would highly recommend 
it.

Yes esearch has its advantages (esync being very handy), but update-eix
seems so much faster than eupdatedb that i abandoned esearch.

Still, each to their own, <yorkshire accent>I remember the days when men
were men and portage was small enough to be searched conveniently with
emerge -s|S on an arthritic 486 with 4M RAM.  We used to get up int
morning, wind generator to charge batteries for computer, update portage
via 2400 baud modem, then emerge -s for new packages before writing new
software 25 hours a day AND pay tuppence a day for privilege. Tell that to the youth of today and they won't believe you.</yorkshire accent>

(of course thats why portage is written in ....... "python")

when using 'esync' why should anybody use eupdatedb? And since I do not watch 
the esync running but doing stuff I do not care about the minute it takes 
longer - but I really like the fact that esync shows all the new/updated 
ebuilds that were transfered.
A lot of software I only saw listed there and never thought about was tried 
and kept after an esync ;)

eix also supports this, as from 0.30 I think, with eix-sync. :)

but as Nick said those are the tools of the devil and not the way real
