Description Benjamin Bannier 2009-11-16 00:20:51 UTC
Hi,

the new lhapdf lib is out. Updated ebuild attached.

The major change to the previous versions is that the huge PDF files are not bundled with the library anymore. They provide an extra script to install them. I thought how this could be added to the current ebuild, but the amount of PDFs available seem to make this unpractical -- both for maintenance and user configurability. So I guess letting the user take care of this themselves is not totally unreasonable.

Attached ebuild comes from 5.7.1. Only changes are:
  * switch to EAPI=2 for compact USE flag checks.
  * tell user about installation and removal of PDF files.


Cheers,

Benjamin

Reproducible: Always
