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.

    net-dialup/dial: new revision with EAPI=6.

    By moving to EAPI=6, this new revision (-r2) allows us to drop the
    eutils eclass, and the src_prepare/src_install phases. As a byproduct,
    einstall is no longer used.
