Description:   Opened: 2003-08-10 10:45 0000 
I would like to request an ebuild for pax, Portable Archive Exchange.  The
standard summary is:

'pax' is the POSIX standard archive tool.  It supports the two most
common forms of standard Unix archive (backup) files - CPIO and TAR.

I use pax A LOT at work, so I'd like to use it at home on my Gentoo box.  It is
a POSIX standard program, so I was surprised to see that it isn't supported with
a Gentoo ebuild.  I'd like to request that the version here:

http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/contrib/libc6/i386/pax-3.3-4ras.i386.html

be used, as it adds support for bzip.  I have hacked my own version for RH that
is older than this one, and as I'm an F95 hacker...it isn't that good.  This
version is better.  I'm also not sure how to make an ebuild that wouldn't kill
my box.  So, I ask Bugzilla

Minati: You spent all that time defining $S, then you didn't use it in
src_compile() or src_install()...

Also epatch will die by itself w/ a custom error message.

added to portage with some tweaks -- magnet, have a look at it, and we can talk
about the changes I made when we meet on irc sometime
