You don't have to do that, in the ebuild ${EPREFIX} expands to the |

correct thing. |

this is for creating /code/ patches, not for patches against the ebuilds |
| 16 |
themselves |
| 17 |
You need patches to ebuilds, which, if I know what patches you tried and |
| 18 |
worked for you, me and the team can commit to the tree so it sticks. |

This also means below instructions aren't going to fly. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
1. Change the libinput-1.13.2.ebuild file |
| 23 |
2. run ebuild libinput-1.13.2.ebuild digest |
| 24 |
3. emerge --resume or emerge <package> (whichever is resuming what you |
| 25 |
were doing) |
| 26 |
4. if it works, report the diff here, or preferably in a bug so we can |
| 27 |
see to getting it applied |
