Description Target 2003-02-22 20:29:38 UTC 
It's probably easiest if I direct your attention to this:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=36953

The two major concerns:
1. A variable assignment to HTTPD_ROOT fails due to syntax error at the top of
the ebuild.
2. When #1 is manually corrected, something re-assigns HTTPD_ROOT after
src_install() but before pkg_postinst() and does so incorrectly, mangling the
variable's previously-correct contents.

odd, i thought i had removed all that fancy stuff from all the ebuilds in cvs ...

fixed now
