Description Troy Dack 2003-03-11 01:20:12 UTC

Section 2 needs a big fat reference to "man 5 ebuild" 
 
man 5 ebuild contains lots and lots of juicy information that will help people 
create ebuilds. 
 
I only found out about it after carpaski commented on IRC that he had seen a few 
questions relating to ebuilds that could be answered by looking at the man page. 
 

Reproducible: Always

Proposed addition to gentoo-howto.xml can be found on http://cvs.gentoo.org/~swift/gentoo-howto.html, search for "man 5 ebuild".

If accepted by reviewing-committee, I'll add this to the CVS.
