Tested - this, seems to work out of the box for me.....
any idea why this is not in the portage tree yet? working out of the box here and wordnet is a really great research product from princeton.
it is really just a lack of time since there are hardly any permanent people on the app-dicts herd. one thing that would help would be to test the ebuild and report that its working or any bugs there might be in it.
First, thank you for supplying an ebuild and sorry for the long delay. For further ebuilds please consider the following changes I made: Changed copyright to: # Copyright 1999-2004 Gentoo Foundation Missing: inherit eutils epatch depends on this Missing IUSE flag. Keywords should be unstable for a new packge and only tested architectures should be added. Thanx again.
