Description Sean E Russell 2002-06-22 02:15:15 UTC
Hello again,   
   
Here's my second contribution.  This is a complete ebuild package for uptimed,  
an extension to uptime.  Uptimed is a sort of 'top' for uptimes; it keeps track  
of your longest uptimes and gives you some basic statistics about what you're  
running.  Check out http://unixcode.org/uptimed/ for more info.  
  
The attached tarball has what I think is a properly configured ebuild  
distribution, including:  
  
	ChangeLog  
	Digest  
	Init.d script (start(), stop())  
	A patch to keep the uptimed install from illegally creating a directory  
in /var/spool  
	The ebuild file itself  
 
The uptimed sources are, unfortunately, hosted on Sourceforge.  The source 
tarball is downloaded directly from the Telia mirror, bypassing the cursed 
Sourceforge distribution mechanism.  I don't know of any better mechanism for 
handling this, so feel free to tweak it if you do. 
 
Thanks.
