Hi, sorry for the delay. I was just going to add your ebuild to CVS tree, but found your Copyright at the top of it. Could we replace it with Gentoo Technologies, Inc. as other ebuilds? (I wrote your name to ChangeLog of the ebuild instead of writing your name directly to it) Right now, we don't allow dual copyright for ebuilds. To know how we treat copyright issue, please refer to http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/copyright/index.xml Also, from stylistic point of view, you would write something like insinto /usr/lib/${PN} doins pp4p.jar insinto /usr/share/texmf/source/latex/${PN} doins *.sty insinto /usr/share/doc/${PF} doins manual.pdf in src_install() section. In this way, you can avoid writing ${D} around in your ebuild. We'll mirror the source tarball with versioning since the file from master site's MD5 may change and then break ebuilds in the future.
Comment on attachment 16209 [details] ebuild file Feel free to make all the changes you have make. I gladly give up the copyright, the style is awful, as you noticed.
I've just committed ppower4-0.9.6.ebuild to Portage tree. Thanks for the contribution.
