Description Rick Farina (Zero_Chaos) gentoo-dev

This use flag downloads and installs the coverart plugin.

Currently it remains disabled until the user enables it in the options.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.User wishes to install picard and download coverart
2.User installs with coverart use flag
3.User enables through Options->Plugins menu




This ebuild addition is tested and functions.  Without this useflag the user must manually download the plugin, etc etc.

I felt this is a worthwhile change because coverart is so engrained in the picard application yet it does nothing without the plugin installed.

I would love to find a way to fix Picard.conf to automatically enable the plugin but the conf file is not generated till the program is first run so I am unsure of how to fix this.

revised ebuild

The ebuild must inherit eutils, or else it will fail to install.
