Hi, attached is a fairly *draft* ebuild for the rails package (syntax/railroad diagrams) for use with texlive. The Makefile does not use Autotools, therefore I put in some manual mkdirs and copyings in the "src_install()" function. The ebuild is working fine on my system. I annotated a few lines with FIXME as they certainly need to be revised. Yours Martin

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Justin.

This is now /nearly/ in the sunrise overlay, it will be there after final review. You can find it at: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/sunrise/dev-tex/rail
This has been in the tree for some time now.
