Hi; |

|

On the http://www.gentoo.org/ page are several links to |
| 11 |
such information. |
| 12 |
As far as ebuilds go, you can probably submit several |
| 13 |
types of bugs: a) I want prog xyz! please make an ebuild. |
| 14 |
b) Here is my ebuild for prog xyz! please include it. |
| 15 |
c) The ebuild for xyz if broked; here is my fix... |

ps. as part of my ongoing evaluation/observation of this |
| 27 |
distribution, I have submited an ebuild, and submited a |
| 28 |
few things I considered bugs, with fixes attached, and they |
| 29 |
have all had appropriate attention. Gentoo is young, but I |
| 30 |
continue to be _highly_ impressed. |
