Ahhgggr! I am an idiot! I have forgotten to add "S=${WORKDIR}/${PN}-v${PV}" to the ebuild.

Please, explain why is this ebuild needed in the tree.

Uhhh.. It is the first time I see this. Good document.
Allow me to ask:
Dos the ebuild need to fulfill ALL the following requirements:
    * The module(s) fulfill a dependency
    * The module(s) cannot be handled by g-cpan
    * The module(s) add functionality to existing ebuilds
    * The module(s) provide tools, applications or other features (i.e. more than what their .PM offers)

I added this ebuild because it is needed by Mail::SPF. I use Mail::SPF with SpamAssassin and with Postfix (postfix-policyd-spf-perl ->  http://www.openspf.org/Software). That is the reason I made this ebuild.

So I just meet the first requirement of the above list. I never tried g-cpan. Maybe Net::DNS::Resolver::Programmable can be installed with g-cpan. I have not tried that.

I checked g-cpan and it works with g-cpan. So this ebuild is useless :)
