Here is initial viewcvs ebuild for people who love viewcvs better than cvsweb.

Created an attachment (id=8789) [details]
initial submit

put it into /usr/local/portage/net-www/viewcvs and run ebuild <this-ebuild> 
digest at first. 

Postinstallation will require you some manual steps.

Need to add a cvsgraph ebuild.  It really nicely complements the most excellent
viewcvs.

cvsgraph ebuild

I forgot to include dev-util/cvsgraph ebuild, which is required by
net-www/viewcvs ebuild

I just committed a viewcvs ebuild (completely rewritten though as a config
function of an ebuild is not supposed to be used for installing a package the
way the attached ebuild does.)

The ebuild worked fine for me after I tweaked viewcvs.conf for my system,
except for the optional enscript support, which required a few tweaks as
described in:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=12591&highlight=enscript 

Note that enscript is not required to use viewcvs, but it is emerged as a
dependency with viewcvs.  So, I would suggest: (1) remove the dependency, since
its not actually a requirement, and (2) consider applying the tweak to the
enscript ebuild.

I don't know if this ebuild is ready to be unmasked, but I can vouch that
worked fine on my very-vanilla Gentoo dev box. 

Thanks axxackall for pulling this together.
