Please create an emerge for the ELM Mail Reading package. Alas, I've been using it for years, and miss it... Thanks! Kevin N. Carpenter
An ELM-ME+ (patch 100) ebuild is coming very soon. It will be in portage as net-mail/elm as this is the only branch of ELM that appears to still be maintained. I will post on this bug as progress is made.
I have added the Elm(tm) Mail System General Public License to portage as licenses/Elm. I am working through the ./Configure script to make it non-interactive and set by USE variables. Currently the ssl and spell USE variables are utilized.
Well... I am through the configure and compile stage... and now I am working on the install portion. This is quite a headache... a little bit of sed everywhere.... okay a lotta bit of sed everywhere.
The ebuild is being added to portage currently. Sorry it has taken so long for this. In fact, in order to add this ebuild I had to disable sandbox. (sowwy) I got every section to install fine except for the lib portion because so much of it is generated by programs that expect a hardcoded /usr/lib/* path. As there was no way I could get around that, no matter how hard I tried, I stripped out my LIB related ebulid code and just let the script do it's thing. I know it's horrible but it's not going to overwrite anything important! I promise! By the time there is a new release I will have figured out some way, or someone else will have figured out a way around it. :) The package category is net-mail/elm
