Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2014-08-28 21:42:08 UTC
Please check whether the use of 'einstall' in this ebuild is actually
needed. From a quick glance at the Makefile, it seems to have proper
support for DESTDIR.

Therefore, if possible please replace the call to 'einstall' with proper
'default' or 'emake DESTDIR="${D}" install'. Thanks.

+  30 Aug 2014; Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> freepwing-1.4.3.ebuild:
+  Replace einstall with emake install, bug #521450.

Confirmed to install the same. Likely would love moving the remaining directory overrides to econf.
