Copied from the homepage: "iroffer is a software program that acts as a fileserver for IRC. It is similar to a FTP server or WEB server, but users can download files using the DCC protocol of IRC instead of a web browser. Unlike similar programs, iroffer is not a script, it is a standalone executable written entirely in c from scratch with high transfer speed and efficiency in mind. iroffer has been found to transfer over 50MByte/sec over a gigabit ethernet connection." Attached is an ebuild for iroffer. forum thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2526457.html What makes the ebuild look 'ugly' The configure and Makefile shipped with iroffer are bad, they don't accept any options. "configure" is named "Configure" and will fail if options like --prefix= are passed to it. The Makefile will ignore DESTDIR if invoked with make DESTDIR=${D}... and will try to install the files outside of the sandbox. Since i don't know how to rewrite or patch configure and/or Makefile i just let the ebuild compile and install the files with 'dobin' and 'dodoc'. If somebody knows a better way of handling this, feel free to submit it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Created attachment 61952 [details] iroffer ebuild Valid names for the ebuild are iroffer-1.3.10.ebuild and iroffer-1.4.02.ebuild (1.4 beeing the unstable branch).
(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) 'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached to this bug. This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the main tree. 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. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy.

Will be in http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/sunrise-reviewed.git;a=tree;f=net-irc/iroffer-dinoex when reviewed.
Oups… wrong bug id. I publish an ebuild for iroffer-dinoex (successor of iroffer). See: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426616
Dead project. Use net-irc/iroffer-dinoex instead
