• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2011-01-20 00:12:05 UTC]

Pyfa (Python Fitting Assistant) is a standalone application for creating spaceship fittings for the EVE Online MMORPG. It is, basically, an open-source, cross-platform clone of EFT (a freeware Windows utility that is used by virtually all serious EVE Online players).

The ebuild and related files follow.

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Markos.
