Please fix the following and reopen:

* Why the nomirror? If it's really required, please add a comment saying why.
* Has it really been tested on ia64?
* ${A} should be quoted.
* die should have a short error message supplied.
* No need to dodoc COPYING.

I wouldn't mind maintaining this but my ATI machine is now shelved and I'll be
getting rid of it soon.  If no dev with an ATI card wants to take this I'm not
sure how well it could be maintained.
Comment 6 Sebastian Witt 2005-08-23 05:31:07 UTC
I'm new to gentoo, but can't I maintain it? I thought the author of the program
should maintain the ebuild when possible? Testing is not a problem, I've access
to four ATI cards on different plattforms (x86 & AMD64).
Comment 7 Joshua Baergen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-07 20:47:04 UTC
Well, you don't have CVS access to the Portage tree and thus can't maintain the
ebuild :/

Also, Gentoo policy ensures an ebuild can't be marked stable on any arch without
the architecture team's OK.
Comment 8 Sebastian Witt 2005-09-08 09:39:11 UTC
Oh, ok than, if there's no one to maintain it, I'll keep the ebuild on my page
updated so the people can use portage overlay.
Comment 9 Ciaran McCreesh 2005-09-13 11:47:36 UTC
One more things I've noticed:

* http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/docs/mw-faq/redundant.txt (src_unpack, src_compile)
Comment 10 t35t0r 2005-12-04 11:29:41 UTC
thanx for the ebuild, hope it makes to portage soon!
