You could probably argue that subsequently, every ebuild is essentially |

a derived work of the first ebuild, and thus, a derived work of |

Gentoo's copyright. |

The format is so regularised 2 people could independently create the |
| 13 |
same ebuild. |

Not because there's any real rules to how we order things, but because |
| 16 |
people take their advice at how to write ebuilds by copying other |
| 17 |
existing ones. |
