Can anyone make a new ebuild for rockrail?

Some Informations at this site:

Reproducible: Always

I tried to create an ebuild (would have been my first), but ran into trouble. It does not seem to be a standard autoconf/automake project. You just have to run 'make', to build it. So I tried that, and found out that the build requires bzr and a working internet connection, to connect to the bzr repository, which failed. I had to give up at this point, I simply do not have enough knowledge about making your own ebuilds.

After a few years of prioritizing other topics, the model railroad hobby has now been resumed. In the process, I stumbled across my old ticket. Rocrail is no longer an option for me and I therefore close this ticket.

For main reason, refer to this post, which confirms my formerly feeling: https://sunweavers.net/blog/node/47
