Himerge 0.17.3 (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:
update-eix is run after each Sync and Metadata
updating operation, so the package database is
automatically updated for the browser views and
search functions. The web package information
window is now updated on selecting packages from
the different package queues and the package
versions view. A few functions have been
refactored for reducing complexity of code. A
slight bug on showing a package action operation
in the package queues has been fixed.
