Description: Untar it in your portage_overlay dir into kde-misc/
It contains everything needed: yakuake/ yakuake/yakuake-2.7.3.ebuild yakuake/files/ yakuake/files/digest-yakuake-2.7.3 yakuake/Manifest
Yakuake has been added to portage and its category is kde-misc, so you should put that ebuild into your $PORTDIR_OVERLAY/kde-misc/ or simply wait until emerge --sync will give you yakuake-2.7.3 .
Sometimes I forget I can't use shift + the cursors to select text in a console, and I was rebuilding my entire system the other day, and needed to copy a large chunk of text but ended up cancelling the script (emwrap) I had running in another tab and it wouldn't resume, so I had to figure out where it was up to and emerge the remaining 200+ packages manually! :(
Just thought I'd share my tale of woe. Excellent app.
I test ebuild and get problem with download, that try get from mirror list (and one is down) ..take a long time to get source for build..
but if you add next line to ebuild, you don't have any problems.. ;)

a) This is not the YaKuake page itself, but only a package built for the Gentoo distribution. YaKuake itself isn't continued afaik.
b) YaKuake is an application on top of Konsole, a (the) terminal emulator for KDE. You can change settings there and then tell YaKuake to adapt the Konsole settings.
Since the zipped file had the yakuake ebuild in kde-base, I put it in that directory in my portage overlay. Unfortunately I kept getting an error that an e-build for kde-libs 2.7.something couldn't be found. Moving it to kde-misc fixed the problem
Hi,
May I ask why you submit your ebuild to kde-apps.org? In my opinion having a news entry for every app for every distribution makes the apps news unreadable.
Doesn't gentoo have 'portage' so you can just add it to the portage so people can install it using your distributions package manager.
And if that isn't possible isn't it better to add it to the file list of the package instead of creating a new entry?

kde-improvements section is shared between kde-look and kde-apps.
I submitted it to kde-look.org (it's normal on kde-look to publish distro-packages of applications).
Some thoughts...
Should it not go into kde-misc? And for me, the x11-??? dir was missing from the package... was just the yakuake dir and contents.
Other then that... thanks a bunch!
Regards
Martin
You are right, in this release I included only the "yakuake" dir to let everyone put it where they want.
I use x11-terms and you use kde-misc, there is no functional difference, so put it wherever you want! :)

I use it in kde-misc or in x11-terms.

Or maybe just send the ebuild to the yakuake guy to include on its entry. That would make more sence then having an extra entry on kde-apps.org
works fine here, amd64 and KDE 3.5svn. maybe you can get this in here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=2786879#2786879 http://genkdesvn.berlios.de/
