Go back and read my posting about why many ebuilds don't get into the |
| 8 |
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. |
