An ebuild for torrentzip would be great, thanks.
Submit one and we might add it to portage :) You didn't include much more here than a terse request for an addition and a URL =)
My apologies, I shall submit one within 48 hours.
First of all that url is wrong. The correct one is http://sourceforge.net/projects/trrntzip/ Second, this has nothing to do with p2p so it shouldn't be assigned to net-p2p@gentoo.org. It looks like a zip front-end to me.
Yeah, all it does is convert a zip to where if you happen to have an exact copy of something, then you zip it with this zipper it makes it where you can start a torrent and it should match the same thing in the torrent. Otherwise you could possibly, for instance, have a zip that was compressed at -9 when the one in the torrent was compressed at -6 and the torrent would have to re-download said file. ((ebuild still pending, I'm working on it, real life isn't working with me here))

This bug probably belongs in app-arch
- inheriting eutils is not necessary - SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/<foo>/..." - remove #RDEPEND="" - einstall is a ugly workaround. If possible use make DESTDIR=${D} or write a patch.
Could someone please fix this ebuild? I would love to see torrentzip in portage.

now in portage; sorry for the long delay, and very clean ebuild! No build modifications were made. I made a few changes to the package, such as variablizing some of the names. Please check out the ebuild in app-arch/torrentzip to see what slight changes were made.
