Please check whether the use of 'einstall' in this ebuild is actually
needed. From a quick glance at the Makefile, it seems to have proper
support for DESTDIR.

Therefore, if possible please replace the call to 'einstall' with proper
'default' or 'emake DESTDIR="${D}" install'. Thanks.

+*epic5-1.1.10 (03 Sep 2014)
+
+  03 Sep 2014; Nathan Phillip Brink <binki@gentoo.org> +epic5-1.1.10.ebuild,
+  +files/epic5-1.1.10-ruby-automagic-as-needed.patch,
+  +files/epic5-1.1.10-tcl-automagic-as-needed.patch,
+  +files/epic5-1.1.10-without-localdir.patch:
+  Bump to epic5-1.1.10 and erradicate einstall() for bug #521590.

I also dropped epic5-1.1.7 as it was never marked stable. Hopefully I will get epic5-1.1* stable so that the older epic-0.3.5 einstall()-using ebuild can then be dropped.

Fixed? Of course, reopen if you want this to pend stabilization…
