The init script(s) provided in FILESDIR for app-backup/boxbackup has a license of GPL-2 but GPL-2 isn't within the LICENSE variable of the ebuild(s): files/bbackupd.rc has license line: # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 ... and is used by the following ebuilds: boxbackup-0.10.ebuild:LICENSE="BSD" boxbackup-0.11.1.ebuild:LICENSE="BSD" files/bbstored.rc has license line: # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 ... and is used by the following ebuilds: boxbackup-0.10.ebuild:LICENSE="BSD" boxbackup-0.11.1.ebuild:LICENSE="BSD" There are two options here -- either LICENSE in the ebuilds should be appended with GPL-2 to cover the init script, or the init script should be relicensed so that it is covered by current LICENSE (this one is probably the preferred resolution). See also bug 425702 .

This new revision adds "GPL-2" to LICENSE to cover the init script. It also adds two patches, one to eliminate format-security warnings, and the other (provided by a user) to fix the manpage install path.
