This is an updated ebuild based on the beta9 version that is already in portage. The new beta10 version also seems to solve Gentoo bug 21743 (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21743) by unpacking jars to a .maven dir in the user's home directory (instead of unpacking to /usr/share/maven where the user does not have write access -- jars are unpacked after install when program is run for the first time). With this new ebuild, no 'maven' group needs to be added unlike in the previous beta9 build (see patch on above mentioned bug report).
