Hi,
I'm just wondering when OWFS Ebuild will be upgraded ???
The current ebuild...
# emerge -s owfs
Searching...
[ Results for search key : owfs ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]
* sys-fs/owfs
Latest version available: 2.7_p21
Latest version installed: 2.7_p21
Size of files: 1,218 kB
Homepage: http://www.owfs.org/ http://owfs.sourceforge.net/
Description: Access 1-Wire devices like a filesystem
License: GPL-2
is wayyyyy out of date
Looking on sourceforge,
http://sourceforge.net/projects/owfs/files/owfs/
the 2.7_p21 is dated 2009-04-24
2.8_p0 was released 2010-08-02
Current version and release = 2.8_p14 on 16 Jan 2012
So, when will OWFS be updated....
Yes, I could go away and wrote a .ebuild file, yes, I know, but if I
could, I wouldn't be here asking...
Take a look at https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277265
Maybe you should add your comment there, vote for the bug or ask the
developer nicely. He is not listed as devaway so you should be able to
contact him.
In the meant time, you could use the ebuild attached to the bug.

Dang firefox, security exception on the bugz site :(
I have compiled it locally (not thru ebuild) and copied the owfs
exec file to /usr/bin/owfs, and the required library to /usr/lib, I'm
sure to get errors once this package is ever going to get upgraded, but
for now, I think I forgot my long lost bugz password :P
Thanks for the direction and pointers :)
