Description:

A KDE Portage browser

Kuroolito is a portage browser with fast search à la firefox. Kuroolito is available inside konqueror or as standalone application.
Kuroolito search in package name as well in package description.
Stability is calculated for selected package.

To use kuroolito you must activate the sqlite module for portage:
- Kuroolito requires the portage sqlite module to work. See http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_speed_up_portage_with_sqlite
- Uncomment the line 'portdbapi.auxdbmodule = cache.sqlite.database' in /etc/portage/modules .
- Remember to run 'emerge --regen' to update Portage cache with all overlays after each sync.

Howto:
In Tools menu you find "Refresh Packages" and "Refresh Updates".
"Refresh Packages" scans the Portage and found Overlays as well as installed-packages cache. Then "Updates" are calculated by running "emerge -upv world".
In Settings is found options for changing location of the caches as well the syntax for update-command.

Important!
Kuroolito only reads file on the system and saves one database locally. No superuser privileges are required.

You can install kuroolito from sunrise overlay. Use layman to do it.

Hi,

I made a gcc43 patch for kuroolito because it didn't compiled for me. The fixed ebuild I will include here, too.

Dear all,
I've tried to emerge this ebuild but it stops stating that kuroolito-0.10.1.tar.bz2 doesn't exists on http://files.kuroo.org/.
Best regards,
Samuele
