 |
|
Hello all:
(I considered about which forum I should post this, Gentoo Chat || Unsupported Software, and decided to post it here,if wrong, please move it to right forum)
There is a new editor Zed (you might heard about or used it already)
I tried to write an ebuild for it couple of times,but did not go well
There are pre releases alredy contained source code tarballs for linux,so hoping someone can pack it up for Gentoo also
Thank you very much  |

| It seems that while it may work on Mac it is still a work in progress on Linux. Why not just use it as a flatpak until such time it is ready? And report bugs as it seems like there will be plenty. It will probably appear in someone's overlay eventually. |

I tried pre release (prebuild), worked pretty fine,so....
By the way, I don't use flatpak, I do not like some software running in my system that is not provided by system's package manager (Portage is the most of why I use Gentoo) |

Yes, that is exactly what I am talking about.
What I was hoping is some one can do an ebuild and put it on GURU too
Let me see what others will say, maybe there is someone is interested in that like me and has ability to write it. |

| Although your ebuild did not work, it may still be worth sharing, both for where we could offer you guidance and to provide a baseline for anyone who decides to write a working ebuild for this. |

I saw this yesterday and tried making a Zed ebuild as a challenge, as I've never packages anything with Rust before. It took a while but I was successful. The ebuild is too large for the forms, so here's a link: app-editors/zed. The hard part was figuring the patching in src_prepare, I didn't come up with this construction there, I adapted it from dev-util/difftastic ,
Since you have ebuild experience, you can use this ebuild and even put in in a overlay and maintain it. All the values were obtained from Cargo.tom or Cargo.lock . I don't want to maintain this package myself as I do not use it. |

By the time being I'm trying to get zed version 0.161.1 to work. Ebuild is from robert7k overlay.
I can compile it, but yet not able to run. Following is the current error message when running zed in foreground mode.

$ zedit --foreground

}

I'm openning a bugreport on zed's side give that something seems not OK in rust source file.

https://gpo.zugaina.org/app-editors/zed says there is zed-0.162.3 already, maybe that one works?
