Description George Chapman 2005-12-27 18:16:47 UTC

Successfully emerge'd ng-spice-rework on 2005-Dec-07.
Updated portage to 2.1_pre2.
Attempted to rebuild ng-spice-rework; portage's dodoc fails.

Proposed patch to ng-spice-rework-17.ebuild

This is a work-around.  Can't tell whether its an ebuild bug or a dodoc bug.
There may be a better solution in another recent bug against ng-spice-rework.

dodoc used to error in the past when files were blank but did exist (I think that's probably fixed quite a few Portage revisions ago) but this is a genuine case of does not exist... Fixed, thanks :]
