Thanks, fixed in CVS. + 03 Jun 2013; Michael Palimaka <kensington@gentoo.org> + +files/inn-2.5.3-ar.patch, +files/innd-r1, +inn-2.5.3-r2.ebuild: + Add missing PYTHON_REQUIRED_USE. Add elog to recommend using emerge --config. + Respect AR wrt bug #461254. Use correct run dir and fix init script to avoid + reporting its status as 'crashed', wrt bug #468010.
