Hi, sorry for the delay. Finally we have put font.eclass in Portage, and we are able to look at font packages. If you are still interested in getting this ebuild into Portage , we are pleased to include it to CVS. However, the ebuild has several things to be modified before that. 1) The ebuild misses ebuild header. See the top three lines in /usr/portage/skel.ebuild. We ask every contributer to assign ebuilds' copyright to Gentoo Foundation. 2) LISENCE should match one of /usr/portage/licenses/*. From http://cvs.arabeyes.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/art/khotot/license.txt?rev=1.1 I can see this font package is released under GPL-2. It should be GPL-2 then. 3) Rewrite the ebuild with new font.eclass. See ttf-bitstream-vera-1.10-r3 and sazanami-20040629 for example. (You'll see it's not that hard to rewrite yours when you refer to other ebuilds using font.eclass) Please reattach your ebuild when you finish.
