Bongo is a buffer-oriented media player for Emacs, contemporary with and comparable to EMMS 2.0. It runs on GNU Emacs 21 and GNU Emacs 22, and RichardStallman has asked that it be included in GNU Emacs 23. (from http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/Bongo) So maybe the package will be no longer necessary in the future, but Bongo isn't still part of Emacs 23 and this one is not considered stable so still not used widely. Reproducible: Always
Added to Emacs overlay: <http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/emacs/> This is still work in progress: Probably a list of alternative media players (virtual/mpg123, timidity++, ...) should be added to RDEPEND. Also the ebuild doesn't install the tree-from-tags.rb script since it needs additional dependencies: # To run this program, you need Ruby-taglib, available at # <http://www.hakubi.us/ruby-taglib/>, and Mahoro, available at # <http://mahoro.rubyforge.org/>. @graaff: Do we have any of the above Ruby libraries in Gentoo?
A bug was just filed for ruby-taglib, and I don't have any information on Mahoro.
tree-from-tags.rb is not needed for the proper functioning of the package, so I think that we should just install it under /usr/share/doc/. This way we don't have to depend on ruby. Changed in Emacs overlay accordingly.
@timofonic: Please test if the package in the Emacs overlay works for you.

Committed to Portage today. Thanks.
