Himerge 0.17 (Default branch) |
|
|
Himerge is a GUI for emerge (Gentoo's Portage
system) written in Haskell using gtk2hs. The main
idea is to simplify browsing the entire portage
tree, and allow running the most basic and common
options from the emerge command. It also offers
several handy tools, like global and local use
flags browsers, inspired by UFED (the Gentoo Linux
USE flags editor). It also uses eix (a small
utility for searching ebuilds with indexing for
fast results) as a back-end command to show
package information in HTML/CSS format, so you can
access a package's Web site for a quick glance.

Changes:
A full view of the control panel is allowed.
Support was added for showing the action type to
be processed for each package inside the "Queue"
windows. An important bug on the UseFlag browser
was fixed. The speed of some processes was
slightly improved. The cabal file was improved so
it can use the sdist cabal option for packaging.
