Msi-keyboard for Gentoo #1

Open ghost opened 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Hello, thanks you for your works :) I have just one suggestion, can you add this package on Gentoo repository please ? This package is missing on Gentoo :C

makkarpov commented 6 years ago

Sorry for answering so late.

I had never used Gentoo before and I has no experience with building packages for it. If you use Gentoo as your primary system, probably, it would be easier for you to write necessary build scripts and make a pull request.

Hello, it's me, it's my official account, can you allow me to post your script on Gentoo repository ? Don't worry, I would say that you are the author of the script.

makkarpov commented 6 years ago

Yeah, it would be cool. Thanks.

Fulgurance commented 6 years ago

Thanks you !

I have just one question: how is it possible to allow normal user to use msi-keyboard, without root ?

makkarpov commented 6 years ago

There is the udev-rules file, apply it. It will allow any user to access USB device.

Fulgurance commented 6 years ago

How i apply it ? Just copy file on /lib64/udev/rules.d/ directory ?

makkarpov commented 6 years ago

Something like that. On Fedora udev rules are located under /etc/udev/rules.d, but of course Gentoo may have different paths.

If you are experimenting on a live system, you should use udev reload command after that: udevadm control --reload.

Fulgurance commented 6 years ago

Sorry for my many questions. It's good ! Thanks for your help.

I'm programmer, but i don't know very well udev rules system :)

makkarpov commented 6 years ago

Thank you for publishing!

After you are done, can you please post here link to a package in Gentoo package index and/or command to install it? I will include it in the readme.

Fulgurance commented 6 years ago

No problem ! Just wait :)

Fulgurance commented 6 years ago

I have finished my ebuild. I have submitted new package to gentoo. Just wait ! If you would like to see structure of ebuild file and my post: https://bugs.gentoo.org/646522

jonasstein commented 6 years ago

Tagged releases with semantic version numbers would help to prepare a package for a distribution. http://semver.org/

makkarpov commented 6 years ago

There is just one version. But anyway, I added tag v1.0 to latest commit.
