app-editors/visual-studio-code is obsolete #504

Closed ngg closed 3 years ago

ngg commented 3 years ago

Upstream Gentoo has included Visual Studio Code as app-editors/vscode in https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/20710 and also VSCodium as app-editors/vscodium in https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/21045.

This makes the app-editors/visual-studio-code in this overlay unnecessary. It also conflicts with the official vscode package because both uses the /usr/bin/vscode file.

@kuzetsa @cnd What do you think about this? Can I simply remove the package? Or should we have a news item or maybe mark it as a "moved" package? Maybe remove the KEYWORDS first and remove it only later?

sure remove it, this overlay needs heavy cleaning

Agree, both of it is just binary install, and the one in gentoo rep seems to be more advanced with ARM also able to install. I am just wondering: building from source would be that hard? Shouldn't it be app-editor/vscode-bin instead (juts to follow naming convention)?
