- You can never depend on lang/python3 directly.  Use
  BINARY_ALIAS=python3=${PYTHON_CMD} instead [1].

- Are you sure that USES=python:3.6+,build is right?  The port
  installs a bunch of Python files and has Python dependencies.
  Surely Python is needed at runtime too.

- Bad COMMENT [2]

- All of the USE_GITLAB stuff is too complicated and not needed.
  There are proper release tarballs at [3], i.e. eolie-0.9.52.tar.xz

- This could use an update to 0.9.60

- Maybe add yourself as maintainer

I have no idea how to convert gitlab staff to download 2 repos.
I dont know python that is why I do not set me as maintainer. :)

The point of switching to the release tarball is to not have to download from
2 repos.  See net-im/fractal and how it sets MASTER_SITES for an example.

You seem to know enough Python to be able to create a port of Eolie though.
The GNOME team is understaffed, so not sure if assigning it to gnome@ is
a good idea.  Let's at least CC them.
Comment 5 Alexey Dokuchaev freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-11-30 06:57:50 UTC
Actually, we don't have to deal with GitLab at all here, as the author makes traditional bootstrapped releases which include translation bits.  I'll try to get this done.

Committed as ports r556642, thanks.  I've taken the liberty to fast-forward to the latest version and made other minor changes to the submitted port, e.g. dropped dependency on `devel/py-dateutil' as I don't see where it's being imported in the source code.  Please ping me if I've missed anything in my testing.

After some consideration, I've decided that having gnome@ as maintainer is okay since this port is little more than rather thin wrapper over WebKit and won't cause extra maintenance burden.

Why?
Can it be removed or make as option?

(In reply to rozhuk.im from comment #8)
> Why?
Because it crashes without it, as you've already found out.

> Can it be removed or make as option?
Yes, it would be nice, but is there a better, leaner way to handle it than "settings = None" as in your patch?  Perhaps we can wait for the upstream fix?
Comment 12 Ivan Rozhuk 2020-12-01 03:37:17 UTC
Ok, lets wait, I hope they fix it.
