Description Anton Kochkov 2010-08-08 10:01:31 UTC

I've updated ebuild of sys-apps/flashrom-0.9.2 to use new version from svn with subversion eclass - flashrom-9999.ebuild.

This is important, because now flashrom in very active development, and each new svn revision can bring new fuctionality of fix a lot of bugs.

We won't add a live ebuild of flashrom because its much more dangerous than other applications like mplayer or so.
Like leio said in IRC "if you want people to use newer code, there is the incentive to actually _release_ that code".
So please use your own local copy and/or a local overlay.
