 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/

 is way out of date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.

If at first you don't succeed, you'll get a lot of free advice from
folks who didn't succeed either.

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 :)
