There is no ebuild for LimeWire Pro, so I've created one, tested that it works on my system, and am submitting it Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. I put fetch restriction in the ebuild since the Pro version requires purchase, and because as of yet Gentoo and/or LimeWire don't put version numbers in the filenames, the ebuild tells the user they'll need to rename the file to LimeWireOtherPro.zip when they download.

- Please attach files always as plain text. - The ebuild header is invalid
- Please attach files always as plain text. - The ebuild header is invalid¹ - keywords are not prefixed by ~, did you test on all three architectures? - Opening a subshell to echo some lines into a file is not necessary. [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=3
Created attachment 70798 [details] corrected with header and arch Added blank header, and removed other archs, though since this is copied straight from the normal limewire ebuild with just the filename and version edited, I don't see why the arch list shouldn't remain the same as it was before ("x86 ~ppc amd64")... chagned it to only "x86" anyway, as requested. What do you mean by "opening a subshell"?
Thanks, i'm looking forward for this ebuild. It works on amd64, but systray icon don't. Just a suggestion, can you make the ebuild rename LimeWireOther.zip to LimeWireOtherPro.zip? I can't see the point why we need to do it manually. I have another question, isn't easy to use the rpm package? At least it seems nothing is compiled, i guess make the ebuild install the rpm should be simpler than unpack and install LimeWireOther.zip.
Going to close this as wonfix. We might look to update Limewire itself per bug 187835. But at this point more than likely to put any packaging efforts into Frostware (bug 135144) and remove Limewire from tree entirely. So I don't see us ever packaging Limewire Pro. If it does, it would likely reside in an overlay not be committed to tree with a active maintainer.
