I’ve written before about me looking for a disk cataloging tool in linux<\/a>. I think I’ve finally found what I wanted. It’s called gcdkatalog<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The good things about it:
\n1) It has mysql\/sqlite support
\n2) It’s FAST
\n3) does not crash while searching (at least did not crash yet \ud83d\ude1b )<\/p>\n

The bad things:
\n1) No documentation AT ALL
\n2) I have no idea whether the author stills maintains it or not. You can’t even find a link to download the latest version from his homepage. I’ve found it by guessing…
\n2) The code is written by a polish guy and the code comments are also in polish. This can be a problem if you want to change something in the code.<\/p>\n

Anyway…I’ve posted an ebuild of gcdkatalog on Gentoo bugzilla. The ebuild is currently only for ~x86 since I have no amd64 machine to test if it compiles, if you do own one and have 2 spare minutes, please test it and inform me about it. Let’s hope it will eventually make it inside the portage tree. Until then grab the ebuild from bugzilla. <\/p>\n

gcdkatalog ebuild for Gentoo<\/a><\/p>\n

P.S. Before gcdkatalog I used Gwhere<\/a>, but it is lacking sql support. If you don’t mind about it…it’s by far the most advanced cataloging tool for linux I’ve seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
