hi. Added sys-devel/sparc32 to RDEPEND. Added /etc/init.d/audioctl. Fixed some things.
Created an attachment (id=18997) [edit] sparc-utils-1.9-r2.ebuild

What's the reason behind removing and remaking /dev/openprom?
no reason.;) I copied from sys-apps/cloop.
Then why is it in there?
Created an attachment (id=19100) [edit] changes to suggested sparc-1.9-r2.ebuild
I've attached a patch to the bug for the ebuild. This patch does two things. 1) The piggyback64 manpage is really a pointer to piggyback. However, the way it is setup, it doesnt work on Gentoo. So during src_install I adjusted the ebuild to copy the debian/piggyback.1 file to debian/piggyback64.1. Then the manpage works just fine. 2) I removed the forced creation of /dev/openprom from the bottom of the ebuild. I put back the ewarn info with some more information as to when you need /dev/openprom and how to make it if you don't have devs. Basically /dev/openprom is something eeprom and probably prtconf need to access the OpenBootProm. But without the right kernel option, these utilities cannot work either. This kernel option is mentioned now in the ebuild, as well as the instructions to create /dev/openprom should it not exist.
Do you have any problems with this patch being implemented?
Changes added to portage. thanks for the bug :)
