After the emelfm2 ebuild in the portage tree was unmaintained a long time and finally thrown out of the official tree, bug #97570 was quite active and finally more or less maintained by me. With it's 40 comments and countless files and patches i think it is better to start a new bug than reopening the old one..i'm sorry if this is the wrong approach. I hope we can finally get this ebuild into Sunrise and later back in the portage tree. This thread starts with the ebuild for version 0.3 and a patch for gzip'ing instead of bzip2'ing the man page, simply to stick with the current gentoo standard. Please respond to problems with the ebuild here, i would also thank those who have or have the ability to do it on another platform than x86.

I fail to see the point in reintroducing an ebuild that's been unmaintained for ages to the point that it's been finally removed. *confused*
i am willing to maintain this one, so the first step for me is opening a bug so that users can test and response to it. besides that, i wanted to provide the ebuild for the new version

Absolutely fine on ~x86. And sorry for the duplicate... Please put it back into the portage tree!
worksforme on ~amd64 and ~x86.
Peter: No Problem Richard: thanks for testing the ebuild is now in the gentoo-sunrise overlay!
Added to Portage to replace app-misc/emelfm.
