Hi Peter.

Ok, going through your nontrivial bugs.

I have processed and committed the ebuild, please etst.
It was mostly clean, except for a few things:

1. You need to have # $Header: $ as a 3rd line. No need to add the cryptic rest (its done automatically), but this is required for our cvs to process it and assign accordingly.

2. econf --prefix=${D}/...
specifying prefix here is a bad idea. Some apps might hardlink paths inside them. It should have the final destination as much as possible.

3. "emake install" is bogus, it *will* cause sandbox violation, use einstall instead. It automatically passes DESTDIR=${D} to make install, or you can do this explicitly, if package requires some additional parameters. Sometimes, unfortunately, it takes a bit of seding or patching to make it install in proper place, however resorting to --prexif=${D}/.. during configure step is usually a bad idea and should be avoided.
