Patch for hamlib-1.2.7.1.ebuild to produce new hamlib-1.2.8.ebuild

Above patch converts hamlib-1.2.7.1.ebuild into the new one for hamlib-1.2.8.ebuild.

I made the following changes:
- Enable the usage of the rpc-backends as new feature for the user. (That requires '-j1' for correct build)
- simplified installation command in src_install()
- Dropped installation of man3 files if USE="doc" wrt bug #247215

Tom, you desire to maintain this one as well?
Comment 3 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2008-12-04 18:00:23 UTC
Added & added you as maintainer.

FYI: I don't like the logic of USE=tcl mainly because USE=python brings it in anyway. This is deceiving to the end users, please consider revising the logic on the next bump. Thanks.

What about USE="tcl -python"? Assumed someone would like only the tcl-bindings, not the python ones.

But sure, upstream is also unlucky about that linkage. Solution for that is on long term plan.

hmm, yea. I don't have an answer atm. It is just annoying to see a tcl USE flag but it is irrelavent if +python. Although, I guess it is technically correct. *shrugs*
