comments on leafnode-2.0.0_alpha20040206.ebuild: * S should be changed to not use the version. Here is one possible way: MY_P=${P/_a/.a}a SRC_URI="http://www-dt.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de/~ma/leafnode/beta/${MY_P}.tar.bz2" S=${WORKDIR}/${MY_P} * don't use of D in pkg_postinst() pkg_postinst() is called after the package was merged so there is no use to change anything in $D, right? Possible solution: pkg_postinst() { mkdir ${ROOT}/var/spool/news/{leaf.node,failed.postings,interesting.groups,out.going} mkdir ${ROOT}/var/spool/news/message.id/{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} chown -R news:news ${ROOT}/var/spool/news Thx.

punting these to you, Thomas, since you have some history with this package.
Commited to CVS with bump to leafnode-2.0.0_alpha20040513. Also applied the changes to the other ebuilds. Thanks for reporting!
