Bugzilla Bug 33066

PPMd is an attempt at a PPM based compressor, which is rather well behaved- 
usually produces a smaller file then what bzip2 produces, sometimes by a 
decent gap, sometimes by a few k. 
Very well behaved, usually uses a max of 10mb of memory, even for large 
datasets (the openoffice 1.0.2, 560+mb tarball is a good example. 

Reproducible: Always

ppmd v9.1 ebuild

The ebuild needs some work.  Please read:
http://emu.gentoo.org/~liquidx/ebuildmistakes.html
and submit it again.  Thanks.

updated ppmd-9.1.ebuild

Specific complaint w/ the ebuild?  Yes, no homepage, mainly since in my
googling in the last few weeks I haven't come across a specific home of this
project.

The closest there is to a home page, is a debian qa page at 
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/ppmd/
Problem is that that is not really a homepage... meanwhile, I've added a
definition for homepage, setting it to nothing.

Only other issue I found that was slightly out of line w/ the suggested
standards, was the src_uri, which has been adjusted.  Depends has been updated
to be explicit about the need for gzip, and patch.

tabs, trailing spaces, slot, description, iuse, depend (?), S is defined
once
(not redefined) all covered... repoman also signs off on it.
What is missing/needed/incorrect?

updated, v2 ppmd-9.1.ebuild

Taking it further in terms of using ${PN} and ${PV} and using an explicit
patch
version variable to make it easier to update, should another version be
released.

added to portage.
