Mendeley was updated to version 1.10.1 on 1st October. The only necessary change is to rename the old ebuild (1.9.2), I tested this within my local overlay. Anyway I've slightly adjusted the ebuild. As mentioned in the last post in http://support.mendeley.com/customer/portal/questions/199131-on-distribution-policy-and-download-link it is useful to pass the option "--unix-distro-build". With this option Mendeley still shows the 'update available' screen, but it won't offer to install update. I replaced the symlink /opt/bin/mendeleydesktop by a little script, which is created with an echo call within the ebuild. Hopefully you see this change as a little improvement. Reproducible: Always

Hi Marius, Yeah thanks for the patch. I just did a minor modification, for better coherency with other ebuilds it is better to have the launcher script in $FILESDIR. Thanks!
