This is an ebuild for Peter J. Heslin's ellipsis package for LaTeX. It installs ellipsis.sty into the LaTeX path. From the homepage (http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/ellipsis.html): This is a simple package that fixes a problem in the way LaTeX handles ellipses: it always puts a tiny bit more space after \dots in text mode than before it, which results in the ellipsis being off-center when used between two words.

Some remarks on your ebuild: - gentoo policy needs the tarball to have version number. When this is not the case with upstream provided tarballs, as is the case with most CTAN packages, one should use a SRC_URI on the gentoo mirrors (SRC_URI="mirror://gentoo/${P}.tar.bz2") and have a comment that says where the original tarball was. - as your package inherits the latex-package eclass, it does not need the virtual/tetex dependencie - keywords should be ~arch and not arch for new packages - use the unpack function rather than directly unzip If you provide an updated ebuild, I'll add it to the tree. Thanks.
Created attachment 79158 [details] ellipsis-1.6.ebuild (updated) Here is the updated ebuild which hopefully conforms to all requirements. (Who puts the package onto the gentoo mirror?) Mathias
The dev that is adding your package usually takes care of it, but if you are using mirror://gentoo/..., it's a good idea to say it in the bug in order to make sure it is not forgotten. Your new ebuild is fine and I added it to CVS with two small modifications that I hadn't noticed before: description was a bit long, and if dodoc fails, we want the ebuild to die, not to display a happy einfo :) Thanks for your ebuild!
