Created attachment 527418 [details] new ebuild I want to add vmware-remote-console to https://github.com/gentoo/vmware/tree/master/app-emulation. I am working on an .ebuild
*** Bug 653198 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Thank you for your contribution. I had a short look on the ebuild. Here a few ideas: * Please test the ebuild with repoman full -x https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Repoman * We always try to use the latest EAPI, please bump to EAPI=6 * You can drop eutils then * many lines miss ||die, the rm commands for example * Please be more specific in the DESCRIPTION. The objective description may be <=80 characters long.
