Hi,
Wow, this is weird. I was just about to submit my ebuilds for TiLP and related libraries - and a bugzilla search found this.
Anyway, I think my ebuilds are considerably older - I was actually working with the developer of TiLP to clean up a large number of things with the Makefiles so that they would work with Portage. Heh, he actually has _me_ listed as the Gentoo packager :)
But it looks like Jonathan beat me to the punch. Considering his ebuilds are slightly newer, I have no problem whatsoever with it. However, I would like to point out that there are a few things my ebuilds do that his don't (turning off the home dir restriction, and setting the font path correctly).
Before the TiLP ebuilds are officially committed to Portage, I would advise that the originally attached ebuilds are compared with mine, and that any useful changes are merged.
I will be leaving for home for the summer (I'm at college right now) by the end of this week (5/10/03). You can find my ebuilds, as well as my email address, at http://www.cc.edu/~bredeker/tilp/.
