[TiLP-devel] Web site update

[Brent R. <bre...@ca...>]

Hi all,

For those who don't know me, I worked with roms to get the TiLP makefiles in 
shape to create 
ebuilds for the Gentoo Linux distro. I'm currently listed as the maintainer of 
the Gentoo Linux 
packages on the TiLP SourceForge site.

Anyway, I was just contacted by somebody who saw my contact info on the site 
about a problem 
with the Gentoo ebuilds linked to on 
http://tilp.sourceforge.net/tilp-linux.php. After checking out 
the problem, I also realized the info on the TiLP site is quite outdated - 
which is probably my fault 
for not keeping the web site maintainer informed of changes.

Anyway, the ebuilds for TiLP (and the library dependencies) are now in Gentoo 
Linux Portage. The 
ebuilds there are newer than the ones I have publically available, so the web 
site should probably 
be updated to tell people to look in the Gentoo Linux 'app-sci' category for 
the necessary ebuilds. 
The status of the latest ebuilds can be seen at
http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=app-sci;name=tilp
http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=dev-libs;name=libticables
http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=dev-libs;name=libticalcs
http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=dev-libs;name=libtifiles

Also, I haven't had a hand in the latest TiLP updates in Gentoo, so problems 
with or enhancements 
to the ebuilds are probably best addressed by using Gentoo's Bugzilla 
(http://bugs.gentoo.org/). 
Of course, my email address is the same if anybody has a question they really 
want to ask me 
directly.

I'm not sure who maintains the TiLP SourceForge site anymore, so I'm sending 
this to the 
development list. Please contact me with any questions, or if further 
information is desired.

Thanks in advance to whoever can update the site!
