The RPM eclass can be used to extract data from RPMs. If they provide a |
15 |
source RPM, then you shouldn't have very many issues with creating an |
16 |
ebuild to extract and build the software. |

If they don't provide source RPM's you can still use the eclass to |
19 |
create a binary ebuild. |
