Included with this is an ebuild for a very useful utility that I think more people should know about. taptap creates two /dev/tap* devices and connects each other. This is very useful for emulators that need to be on a separate subnet such as simh-vax etc.

That's right there's only the tarball in there. I'll add an index page. Sorry for the omission!
> inherit eutils toolchain-funcs There is no need to put "eutils" in inherit if you don't plan to use it. Nothing in this ebuild does. > LICENSE="GPLv2" LICENSE is _a filename_ from /usr/portage/licenses/ so it's called GPL-2 instead of GPLv2. > KEYWORDS="x86 ppc arm amd64" New ebuilds get only ~arch keywords, and only for arches you have tested them yourself.
