The .ebuild seems to be full of typos or is outdated. Here's my quick hack to make it work. I don't think this is the correct way of doing things (I'm not too familiar with ebuild development ), but it works. I'm not too sure how to create patches? So I just ran a simple "diif"... $ diff libswf-0.99.ebuild.orig libswf-0.99.ebuild.FIXED 16c16,19 < src_install () { --- > src_unpack () { > unpack $A > tar -xf *.tar > } 17a21 > src_install () { 26c30 < dochtml *.html --- > dohtml *.html
thanks for the catch and the fix.
the fix broke things with newer portage... see bug 20346
