In src_install: dosym "${ED}"usr/portage/licenses/LGPL-2.1 "${DOC_DIR}/LICENSE" It is not guaranteed that /usr/portage exists on the user's system (and see bug 373349 why using PORTDIR instead would not be a goI'd suggest to restore installation of COPYING in gpredict-1.1-doc.patch and let the package's build system install it from the tarball.od idea either). Besides, the symlink points to ED and its target will be gone after cleanup of the build directory. I'd suggest to install the LICENSE file from the tarball instead.
