Slackware has a nice little tar of some extra console fonts. I think it'd be cool to let Gentoo users have easy access to installing them. This simple ebuild installs them in /usr/share/consolefonts so they can be accessible for setting in /etc/conf.d/consolefont or by simply running "setfont" on the console. This ebuild is versioned 0.1 because slackware has no version on this tar, and it hasn't changed for several years. I've got it in my overlay in media-fonts/extraf/.

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) 'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached to this bug. This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the main tree. Heuristics show that no Gentoo developer has commented on your ebuild. Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy.
