Created attachment 383272 [details] xlslib-2.4.0.ebuild Recently i used xlslib (http://sf.net/projects/xlslib) for generating Excel sheets under Linux. So i created this ebuild file to get it as shared c++ library in my system. This bug is for others which may look for a lib to create Excel (*.xls) files. It may be worth to be added to the portage tree.

Created attachment 383288 [details] Updated ebuild for xlslib Jeroen - thanks for your review. As i do not regulary design ebuilds it was not "perfect". According to your comments i've updated the ebuild file and attached it again.
