18 I think this too, perhaps send an email to both the AUTHOR and the
19 last commiter to that package. Another possibility is to add all
20 ebuilds that do this wrong under an wiki-todo so that every developer
21 can look there to see if someone else has found errors in one of your
22 ebuilds. I'm not sure about mine, haven't looked into it yet, so feel
23 free to flame me for broken ebuilds :)
