Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev

The ebuild has this:

src_unpack() {
	cp "${DISTDIR}"/* "${S}"
}

Now the package manager may use the real DISTDIR, or it may use a "shadow" dir instead. The ebuild must not rely on either of these cases. If DISTDIR is the real dir, ${S} will end up with a lot of files.
