This is incorrect. You need to get all files installed into ${D}, the Portage |
| 13 |
temporary directory, rather than install to the root filesystem directly. Look |
| 14 |
at any of our other ebuilds in the Portage tree for examples of how to do this; |
| 15 |
basically, you study the Makefile and see if you can override DESTDIR or prefix |
| 16 |
to redirect the install somewhere else. |
