You might be best off checking with the sunrise project (http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/sunrise/), they might have the help and expertise you're looking for...
i will write an ebuild for bmpanel but first i have to talk with the developer because there are some problems with the provided configure script. if that is done i will add bmpanel to the sunrise overlay.

x11-misc/bmpanel is now in the sunrise overlay. You can find it at: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/reviewed/x11-misc/bmpanel
Working on ppc. I've added the keyword into the sunrise overlay.
I use openbox window manager with bmpanel. I tested the bmpanel-0.9.27.ebuild from http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/reviewed/x11-misc/bmpanel and work without any problem on amd64 platform. Only have a little problem when emerge the package. The emerge force the use of libev or libevent useflag. Is possible make one of them the default? >>> Emerging (1 of 1) x11-misc/bmpanel-0.9.27 * bmpanel-0.9.27.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ... [ ok ] * checking ebuild checksums ;-) ...

This ebuild doesn't seem to download the required file Makefile-no-strip.patch. I found that I had to download it to x11-misc/bmpanel/files then do the usual: [Well actually since I'm on the PPC I had to do this first: sudo ekeyword ppc x11-misc/bmpanel/bmpanel-0.9.27.ebuild ] sudo ebuild x11-misc/bmpanel/bmpanel-0.9.27.ebuild manifest And then install it with the one of the libev flags: sudo sh -c 'USE="libev" emerge bmpanel'
(In reply to comment #9) > This ebuild doesn't seem to download the required file Makefile-no-strip.patch. it was downloaded e.g. by layman or svn not from the ebuild. so it sounds like something with your layman or just during the last sync was wrong.
