There is no eBuild for the RTG package from http://rtg.sourceforge.net Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: emerge -s rtg emerge -p rtg find /usr/portage -name rtg -print Actual Results: MRTG found, not the Real-Time Grapher. Expected Results: Found an RTG eBuild. 0.74 is current version.

Suggestion: Write one :-)
mrtg and rrdtool have same functions
I have MRTG/RRDTOOL currently running, but RTG has certain advantages, like generating graphs in real-time and storing intermediate data in a MySQL database. It scales better across multiple machines and processors. I'll try to write a ebuild, I just haven't setup all the CVS stuff yet.
RTG 0.7.4 now exists in the Portage tree. You can now emerge net-analyzer/rtg :) Enjoy!
