[albfneto]

this is to inform that the Portuguese (Brazilian) translation of Portato 13 is available in Entropy for Sabayon, and in Portage for Sabayon and Gentoo users.

Portato 0.13.1 is finally in the portage tree ... only small bugfixes (segfault, correct path handling for useflags etc.)

[Fitzcarraldo]

As with previous versions of Portato, if you install a particular version of a package, the version in the Versions window still does not show a green 'LED' next to it after it has been installed. You have to select another package in the Packages window, then reselect the package you have just installed in order to see a green 'LED' next to the version that has just been installed.

Furthermore, I used Portato 0.12.1 to install penguin-command 1.6.11 and there was no green 'LED' against the package name in the Packages column, whereas there was when I used Portato 0.12.1 to install missile 1.0.1. Then when I exited Portato and launched it again, there was a green 'LED' against the package name in the Packages column.

May I enquire if the above-mentioned functionality still exists in the new version 0.13.1, Necoro?

It does. Fixing it is not as trivial as it sounds, I'll have to re-organize my structure to get it done.

Hi all,

a new release is planned to be released in the next weeks (I would say the first weekend in May). So I ask everybody to check the current alpha to find bugs before they are included in the release

The new release will come with these new features:
- allow eix as backend DB --> allow to search descriptions
- show the list of world packages
- add an icon to signal the 'best' version for a package
- added Italian translation (thx to Ponsi)
- added French translation (thx to Clément 'moonpyk' Bourgeois)
- fix bugmail sending

To install the alpha version do the following:
layman -a portato
emerge -av =app-portage/portato-0.14_alpha

Note that there is no more need to specify a file for layman. The portato overlay is now included in the Gentoo repositories list. Oh ... and you are planning to do a translation for portato -- now is the time to get it done and it being included in the next version

@fitzcarraldo: Your bug is still not fixed (I simply forgot about it :/) ... but there is now at least a bugreport for it https://bugs.launchpad.net/portato/+bug/566037
