well, im trying to make a ebuild for the MainActor, a video editor from MainConcept, i know this program isnt free and open, but its really a great program to edit videos, so i start wrote the ebuild (its my first ebuid) and its runs fine, but i have a problem, the directories /opt/MainConcept and /usr/lib/MainConcept and theirs archives dont have permissions to normal users see the content, i dunno why this happening, so i decide to put the ebuild here for you guys help me with this problem

the rpm archive you can get on the MainConcept home page, its a demo of the program, but its fully functional and to remove the "banner" on videos you need to buy a serial.
Thanks

I was just about to try out your ebuild when I found this on the website:
| Quote: |
MainConcept has decided to discontinue the maintenance and distribution of MainActor v5, its Video Editing Suite for Windows and Linux. Users who have been editing their videos with MainActor v5 will still be supported for their technical questions within the next 3 months. "My decision to retire MainActor was a really difficult step. I have invented MainActor for Amiga in 1986 even 7 years before MainConcept has been founded," said Markus Moenig, CEO and founder of ManConcept. "But our business area has changed and today we are entirely focused on codec licensing. I want to thank all MainActor users for their support over the years".
Sorry, MainActor is no longer available at our website.

What a sad day, I have been looking everywhere for such a program, commercial or open source and now they decided to discontinue their product....

| Two months ago, I asked them to release sources under GPL or whatever. They written to me that they consider such possibility, but right now not decided yet. You could do the same, ask. |

Unfortunately it is true, we will do not develop MainActor any longer, sorry.
But we thinking about an opensource version of MainActor, unfortunately I
cannot give you a date for this.

Old thread, bad news:
| Quote: | Vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage, nach Rücksprache mit der Geschäftsleitung ist es
amtlich und endgültig, wir werden Mainactor nicht als Open source
veröffentlichen. Die Gründe sind in erster Linie Lizenz gründe.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

which basically means that they do not release the software finally as foss, they have issues with the licence. |
