I'm trying to fix some Gentoo packaging stuff, since Fat-Zer hasn't touched his overlay in nearly a year and only ever provided live ebuilds (= packages that install directly from git main branch, not from released versions). There are a bunch of details in the packaging apparatus that haven't been changed in a long time, and I'm pretty sure that some of those details are incorrect. Specific questions: Permitted licenses for tqt are still listed in the ebuild as "QPL-1.0 GPL-2 GPL-3", unchanged from qt3. Am I correct in remembering that QPL (Trolltech's proprietary license) is no longer valid for tqt? What is the actual version number of tqt? Of tqtinterface? Historically, these followed a different version scheme from the main desktop, but that seems to have changed. Currently, I'm dealing with the version numbers, certain directory and file names, and a Gentoo SLOT (mechanism for tracking multiple versions of the same package installed in parallel) inconsistently, and I would like to clean things up. What, exactly, are msg2qm and qembed? The ebuild I inherited for tqt builds them separately, with comments reading "# Make the msg2qm[/qembed] utility (not made by default)", and furthermore the build mechanism is currently broken. I need to know whether or not fixing it is worth the effort. Are these utilities used for building and/or running anything? More to come as I work my way through the tree, if I don't just give up and crawl away into a corner somewhere the way I did the last two times I tried this. E.
