Description Michał Górny archtester

Please check whether the use of 'einstall' in this ebuild is actually
needed. From a quick glance at the Makefile, it seems to have proper
support for DESTDIR.

Therefore, if possible please replace the call to 'einstall' with proper
'default' or 'emake DESTDIR="${D}" install'. Thanks.

emake DESTDIR="${D}" install causes a sandbox violation due to it trying to rm /usr/bin/build-guile.

Fixed in 1.8.8-r2.
