Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2014-08-29 22:06:28 UTC
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.

modutils is obsolete and has been masked for removal.
