Description:   Opened: 2002-09-02 12:51 0000 
This is a minimal getty for virtual consoles only, as used by RedHat, Mandrake, 
etc. 

One feature is that it clears the screen before prompting for the login name, 
but this can be disabled with the --noclear option. 

The ebuild has SRC_URI set to 
"http://www.biblio.org/gentoo/distfiles/${P}.tar.gz", though obviously this 
file does not exist yet.  The package is currently maintained by RedHat and 
only exists as a .src.rpm file (though there is an older version tarball in 
Debian).  The tar.gz file can be extracted from the src.rpm file using "mc" and 
copied into "/usr/portage/distfiles" for now.  One location for the src.rpm 
file is: 
"ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/7.3/en/os/i386/SRPMS/mingetty-1.00-1.src.rpm". 

I suggest sys-apps/mingetty for the location of the attached ebuild script.

well, I added rpm2targz as a DEPEND of this package, so the src.rpm is fetched
directly...
