Hi,

I am submitting a lesstif-0.93.36.ebuild. Lesstif is an OSF/Motif(R) clone. The
homepage is at http://www.lesstif.org/.

I suggest x11-libs/lesstif.

Thanks.

I committed the ebuild to the portage tree.  Note that the portage tree is
frozen now, so the ebuild is masked out in /usr/portage/profile/package.mask.

Also, please have a look at the modifications to the ebuild that I did.  For
your future submissions:

1. All patching should happen in src_unpack().
2. The man pages should go into /usr/share/man, not /usr/man.
3. Your ebuild was installing a whole lotta documentation under /usr/LessTif. 
You need to ensure that all docs go into /usr/share/doc/${P}.
4. It's a bad idea to hard-code ebuild version (i.e. 0.93.36) inside the ebuild.
 You should use ${PV} instead: this way upgrading the ebuild is as easy as
renaming it.

Thanks for your submission.  Please test the committed ebuild and report back.
