Herein is a an ebuild for Damian Conway's "Coy" Perl package It depends on Lingua-EN-Inflect, which is already in portage. I suggest dev-perl/Coy as the package.
Created attachment 14959 [details] ebuild for Coy
Does this ebuild satisfy any dependencies for currently installed packages or another bug request for a new application? Gentoo policy is to add perl modules only when they fulfill a dependancy for an application in portage.
I use Coy for applications personal to me. That policy seems to be a bit weird; it implies that Perl modules have no value of their own right. Who do I beat on to get that reworked?
Please read http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/policy.xml#doc_chap2 and reopen if still valid.
