kdrive shows it's discription as "Based on the gcc eclass". Not very descriptive. # emerge -s kdrive Searching... [ Results for search key : kdrive ] [ Applications found : 1 ] * x11-base/kdrive Latest version available: 4.3.0-r5 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of downloaded files: 30,599 kB Homepage: http://www.xfree.org Description: Based on the gcc eclass License: X11 Cause: After defining DESCRIPTION the ebuild inherits gcc.eclass. The gcc eclass overwrites the DESCRIPTION set in the ebuild. A fix is to inherit before setting the DESCRIPTION. BUT IMO it's just wrong that an eclass overwrites DESCRIPTION. This is an issue which I saw already several times. A DESCRIPTION set in the eclass will be insufficient for any ebuild anyway. Better would be IMHO to never set DESCRIPTION in eclasses or only set it if it's not already set. Then this issue will never ever happen again. ;-)
fixed in cvs
