ReaR is a fully automated disaster recovery for a broad variety of backup strategies and scenarios.

The new release brings a reorganized directory structure, a bunch of additional
storage drivers and plenty of commentary example configs.

I added useflag 'examples' for the latter and a useflag 'udev' to install the
ReaR udev rule which it used to run automated backups when a known USB backup device is attached.

I'd like to ask for final review and ack for commit into sunrise.

What is required to get this into the official portage tree?

You can contact the proxy maintainers project if you wish to become maintainer of this package in portage.

+  17 Oct 2013; Tom Wijsman <TomWij@gentoo.org> +metadata.xml, +rear-1.15.ebuild:
+  New ebuild for app-backup/rear, fully automated disaster recovery supporting a
+  broad variety of backup strategies and scenarios. Proxied commit for Timo
+  Eissler, who will be proxy maintaining this package. Thanks to bacce for
+  reporting the package and providing an initial version, also thanks to n4cer
+  for minor improvements.

Thanks everyone, this has been committed to the Portage tree.

Some additional very small changes were made, nothing really major (maybe the 2):

1. EAPI 4 -> 5
2. sys-fs/udev -> virtual/udev
3. KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86" -> KEYWORDS="~amd64" unless / until someone can confirm it works on ~x86, since I haven't tested it on that platform.
4. Sorted dependencies.
5. Shortened empty src_compile a bit.
6. Reordered src_install.
7. Minor interpunction changes in comments.
