[gentoo-dev] ebuild troubles installing

[mark lybarger]

i'm having troubles with my first ebuild script.  it's having troubles 
installing a library into /usr/lib.  i've tried this with both the libs 
existing and when they're non existant.

Here's the src_install from the ebuild :

src_install() {
         make install || die
}

and here's the errors from running the emerge:
