Move imobiledevice packages to app-mobilephone/ and move gtkpod to media-sound/

Open Tatsh opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

iPhone/iPad/iPod/iPod Touch are not PDAs. app-pda/ should only refer to software for Palm and Windows CE devices.

On a side note, the few packages left in app-pda/ (dynamite, jpilot, pilot-link) should be last rited and removed. They have not seen updates for multiple years.

New packages

This Pull Request appears to be introducing new packages only. Due to limited manpower, adding new packages is considered low priority. This does not mean that your Pull Request will not receive any attention, however, it might take quite some time for it to be reviewed. In the meantime, your new ebuild might find a home in the GURU project repository: the ebuild repository maintained collaboratively by Gentoo users. GURU offers your ebuild a place to be reviewed and improved by other Gentoo users, while making it easy for Gentoo users to install it and enjoy the software it adds.


In order to force reassignment and/or bug reference scan, please append [please reassign] to the pull request title.

They have not seen updates for multiple years.

I was told that if the package is stagnant it's not enough to treeclean it

I'm fine with that.
