There is no ebuild for incron (http://incron.aiken.cz). Incron is a daemon that executes programs when certain file system operations take place (as offered by the kernel INOTIFY notification system), much like time-based cron. I have made an ebuild for this, maybe someone can improve on it and commit it to the portage tree. (there still is a typo in the init script, which was shamelessly ripped off gpm...) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 107168 [details] proposed ebuild My version of an incron ebuild, please review (and have mercy on me, this is one of the first ebuilds I've written).
Please, don't attach tarballs... http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=3#doc_chap2
Attach a plaintext ebuild and reopen then; thanks.

Created attachment 107175 [details, diff] required patch not really a well done patch, but it works
attached files as requested. reopening.
You can perform check for kernel features in a much more clean way (example from nvidia-drivers): inherit (...) linux-mod (...) ... ebegin "Checking for MTRR support" linux_chkconfig_present MTRR eend $? if [[ $? -ne 0 ]] ; then ... die "MTRR support not detected!" fi

*** Bug 184800 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Apropos of the previous entry where my bug was marked a duplicate of this one...fair enough, since we both submit ebuilds for incron, but I don't want it to be lost that my bug also concerns the cron setup, and so is strictly a superset of this one. More accurately this should be the duplicate bug, not mine...
0.5.7 in cvs, no idea about fcron, sorry
