Go back and read my posting about why many ebuilds don't get into the |

tree. |

If you fix those issues, and fix that ebuild. |
13 |
Things to fix: |
14 |
add SLOT, add KEYWORDS, add IUSE, 'use foo' statement style, use PATCHES |
15 |
instead of patch+src_unpack, local variable declarations, unnessicary |
16 |
statement block in src_install, broken homepage URI, ALL documentation |
17 |
with the package should be installed (manpages and even the guys pgp |
18 |
key) , einstall instead of 'make install' and most importantly EBUILD |
19 |
CHANGELOG!!!!! |

Is libcap even actively maintained still? If not and it is not widely |
24 |
used, then it is not likely to get into the tree at all. |
25 |
|
26 |
If you resolve all of the above issues, and the package is still widely |
27 |
used (I want some proof of this), then I'll take the ebuild and maintain |
28 |
it in portage myself. |
29 |
|
30 |
Update the bug with your new ebuild and mark the old ones obsolete. |
