Description Jonas Stein gentoo-dev

* QA Notice: This ebuild installs into paths that should be created at runtime.
 *  To fix, simply do not install into these directories.  Instead, your package
 *  should create dirs on the fly at runtime as needed via init scripts/etc...
 * 
 *   var/cache
 *   var/cache/gdm  run
 *   run/gdm
 *   run/gdm/greeter

portage still really unhappy about our and the upstream packages life choices about created install directories with gdm-3.22.3.
