Seemant,

  Well, I still believe the new version string is correct and as I stated in
the mail I can't see another way to guarantee versioning correctly should
a return to numbered releases happen.  If I'm wrong, or there is a better
way send it and swift kick this way please.

Cheers

  I'd also like you to commit the second patch, which contains a small
pkg_postinst() info chunk telling people to install and use fakeroot.
I feel it is very important, but not important enough to require an explicit
dep.  I understand fully if you feel it shouldn't be in the ebuild, which is
why it is a separate patch.

sorry for the delay there, James. In portage now.  Have a good holiday :)
