Description Martyn J. Pearce 2003-07-24 09:49:48 UTC
Herein is a an ebuild for Damian Conway's "Coy" Perl package
It depends on Lingua-EN-Inflect, which is already in portage.
I suggest dev-perl/Coy as the package.

ebuild for Coy
Comment 2 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-07-29 08:52:22 UTC
Does this ebuild satisfy any dependencies for currently installed packages or another bug request for a new application? Gentoo policy is to add perl modules only when they fulfill a dependancy for an application in portage.
Comment 3 Martyn J. Pearce 2003-07-31 03:28:52 UTC
I use Coy for applications personal to me.  That policy seems to be a bit weird; it implies that Perl modules have no value of their own right.  Who do I beat on to get that reworked?
Comment 4 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-15 00:29:25 UTC
Please read http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/policy.xml#doc_chap2 and reopen if still valid.
