efl-1.20.7 availability in Funtoo?

[NikosAlexandris]

What has to be done to get https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/dev-libs/efl/efl-1.20.7.ebuild available in Funtoo-Linux?

1. wait until it makes it into the funtoo tree

 

2. use local overlay

 

3. install gentoo :)

 

 

now seriously, what new functionality does this version bring? why should funtoo have this? what are possible breakage points? can you test it with local overlay and report back?

 

thanks

Hey, thanks.

Between 1.20.x and the previous ones, one would expect several fixes. If one wants to try E22, it seems not to be possible with earlier versions of EFL. See also https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/packaging_status/. I love to work with https://www.enlightenment.org/about-terminology, and, thus, I would like to have the latest one.

Now, I would like to pick option 2, if I get some time :-). Or, I would love to learn how to prepare ebuilds, then suggest them for inclusion. For example, https://gitlab.com/NikosAlexandris/osgeo-overlay which I stopped working on. Too many things, not much time.
