lynx-2.8.6_pre15.ebuild

Here are the changes I had to make in my local tree for this bug.

adding ppc-macos to check the patch.  ppc-macos keyword is dropped in the
patch.

ppc-macos changes

applying the above patch to the lynx-2.8.6_pre15.ebuild file, cleans up the
darwin/osx mess.  This new version seems to compile and work fine for ppc-macos
without additional tweaks.   I tested, and hence added back the ~ppc-macos
keyword.

arch teams -- please test lynx-2.8.5-r2 and mark stable

Fabian -- please make sure ppc-macos is ok with 2.8.5-r2 as well

silly seemant you asked for arch testing but forgot to ~arch the keywords. 
I reverted those for you and the arches right quick. I also tested on x86 and it 
looks pretty good so I left it in stable.

------- Comment #7 From Brent Baude 2005-11-12 18:45:35 0000 -------
ppc64 stable

------- Comment #8 From Jason Wever (RETIRED) 2005-11-12 18:49:24 0000 -------
Stable on SPARC

At your service!

marked 2.8.5-r2 stable and made darwin patch unconditional (getting rid of the
conditional in the ebuild)
