einstall is a kludge that is supposed to be used only when DESTDIR is not supported
i would love to fix all these bugs.. but honestly... i have no cvs access... and haven't for a long time... when my gentoo.org email account stopped forwarding email to me... things hit the fan and now i'm no longer a developer... yet i still have bugs... and i have solutions for almost all ofthem... and then some... and i have 5 gentoo boxes in front of me that i am doing development work on... seems kinda funny hey? kinda ironic? kinda like being alone on christmas.
try contacting devrel to see whats up with your account ?
This ebuild is no longer in portage, closing this bug.
