Hi all.

To make the long story short: I inspected https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Category:Documentation, and I did not find anything about integration into source-based distributions [e.g. Funtoo and Gentoo].

Does TDE yet have integration into source-based distributions, preferably in an up-to-date fashion [e.g. TDE 14.x is integrated into <current/latest major release>.x of some distro]? If yes, and you know about it, then please both reply to my email and update the TDE documentation.

There are ebuilds for Gentoo--see https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde-packaging-gentoo I would expect them to also work for Funtoo, based on what I know about that distribution, but that has not been tested.

We're currently a bit stalled because the person responsible for merging changes is AWOL, but if you poke through the pull requests you'll find ebuilds for much of 14.0.8. Since Gentoo uses a rolling-release system, there is no such thing as a Gentoo version, but everything was working as of three months ago.

TDE is unlikely to make it into Gentoo's main portage tree in the near future.

(I'm curious as to why you wanted to know this when you're clearly not a Gentoo user.)

Does TDE yet have integration into source-based distributions,... ...then please both reply to my email and update the TDE documentation.

People are supposed to contribute in order to move TDE forward you know.

Dependending on everyone's skills, interests and willingness; they take on bugs, translations, packaging...and the documentation.

Once you have sorted this Gentoo/Funtoo stuff out (Please read E. Liddell message), fell free to write the proper doc in the wiki for everyone to read. No-one but a Gentoo's user/contributor will do it.

Cheers.
