media-libs/xvid makes use of epatch in src_prepare() but does not inherit eutils. As per the devmanual[1], epatch requires the import of eutils. Currently there is only one xvid ebuild in the prefix tree that needs updating: xvid-1.2.2-r1. [1] http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/functions/src_unpack/epatch/index.html
fixed, thanks
