Ebuild to install smolt under Gentoo
These are the changes the ebuild went through (see client.patch for more):
files/smolt-init.d:
Dependency on hald changed to "use", for otherwise the script
would be suspended each time hald is stopped;
smolt-1.1.1.1.ebuild, files/client.patch:
Additional handling of 3 password files: hw-uuid, hw-uuid.pub, and hw-admin;
+files/smolt_monthly.sh:
Asynchronous monthly update script added;
+smolt-1.1.1.1.ebuild, +files/client.patch, +files/smolt-init.d:
Initial ebuild from a source rpm for Fedora.
Smolt results in something like http://www.smolts.org/show?uuid=pub_48772ee7-74f9-4c02-b539-4e353bff4461, be it used through the command line or its (GTK+) GUI. Notice: With smoltGui, if you still use python v2.4, you have to insist on its home button to bring up your personal profile page: If there is no Firefox window open, you must click on it twice to open the right page.

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manor. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy.

(remember to honour ${ROOT})
the gui part should only installed depending on a USE flag - like gtk. that makes the client available to headless machines (without needing to install gtk).
