Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2014-08-29 21:06:40 UTC
Please check whether the use of 'einstall' in this ebuild is actually
needed. From a quick glance at the Makefile, it seems to have proper
support for DESTDIR.

Therefore, if possible please replace the call to 'einstall' with proper
'default' or 'emake DESTDIR="${D}" install'. Thanks.

Austin English fixed this a while ago in -r2. I'm doing some unrelated ebuild cleanup, but you were right, the einstall was pointless.
