 Hi you all,
 
 I am sorry for posting this question but I saw no other way (got really
 confused).  I am developping an application (a text editor) and I would
 like to see it into Gentoo distro, but I can't really understand the way
 that thing goes. I read the documentation about how to make an ebuild
 file, but could not figured out how to submit it. Could you point me
 some directions, please, even if it is another maillist.

Please don't use HTML format when posting on mailinglist. New packages
should be reported to http://bugs.gentoo.org and if I you want to write
your own ebuild to attach in the bug, see http://devmanual.gentoo.org

Thanks, Samuli

Hello hiperon, thanks for asking.

Your project will probably become package app-editors/cafe.  From the
kind of application it would fit either (A) the main tree (in which case
bugs.gentoo.org is the place to go) or (B) the sunrise overlay (in which
case #gentoo-sunrise on Freenode will get you running and help with
ebuild _review_).

[gentoo-dev] about a new app

Hi you all,

I am sorry for posting this question but I saw no other way (got really
confused).  I am developping an application (a text editor) and I would like
to see it into Gentoo distro, but I can't really understand the way that
thing goes. I read the documentation about how to make an ebuild file, but
could not figured out how to submit it. Could you point me some directions,
please, even if it is another maillist.

sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi there,

The best thing to do is to file a bug at http://bugs.gentoo.org
requesting that the application be added to the Portage tree.  A Gentoo
developer can then make the ebuild file for you.  If I get a little time
today to look at the source, I might be able to throw one together.  The
best thing for you to do now though is to file the bug.

Hope that helps,
Nathan Zachary
