Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2014-08-28 20:09:26 UTC
So there are ebuilds which use einstall even though Makefile seems to have DESTDIR inside... let's investigate them!
Comment 1 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-07-18 03:36:04 UTC
There aren't many examples of 'einstall' in the tree at all now, unsurprisingly.

In fact, the last one appears to be:
>app-accessibility/eflite/eflite-0.4.1-r3.ebuild:35:	einstall

... and it's just been last rited. Let's close this.
