I assume that means that your so far written ebuilds work as expected for you?

i use my ebuild in our private overlay and on several machines, so: yes ;) ebuild is very simple, no magic anywhere.

Emerges fine on ARCH="amd64" and ARCH="arm" and at least `duply --help` and `duply create` work.

I think you can safely add ARCH="~arm" to the ebuild, before it gets added to official tree.

A few comments

- The description must not contain the package name. How about changing that to "A shell frontend for duplicity" (not dot at the end)

- Is app-backup/duplicity really a build time dependency? or is it just a runtime one?

- in src_install you can replace 'duply' with ${PN}
- Why are you installing the INSTALL.txt file? the package is already installed so what useful information could be in that txt file for the user? I suggest to install a ChangeLog and/or README file (if any).
- in pkg_postinst() maybe you can benefit from the readme.gentoo.eclass to avoid spamming the log on every build?

fixed.

it is a running dependency. fixed.

fixed also in Log-Message.

indeed ;) There's no Changelog in Upstream-Archive. If we'll deliver a Changelog we have to deliver a readme.txt (14.7kb and there's only one for all 1.7.x-versions) with the portage. Otherwise if 1.7.4. will be released, the upstream readme.txt will be changed in 1.7.x-tree and this package will break. that's not good ;) Now there's no Changelog in ebuild/filesdir.

I didn't know about that, nice feature. Added to ebuild.
