Yes, it can be a "web app". It can also be run stand-alone using its |
| 10 |
own web server with no external dependancies other than python and |
| 11 |
support for the VC system you want to use. It seems a bit un-Gentoo |
| 12 |
to allow only the former option rather than give the user a choice. |

I am, since it doesn't require a separate web server, it shouldn't |
| 17 |
depend on a separate web server. |

That seems like a kludge that's likely to cause problems later. ISTM |
| 22 |
that the ebuild is broken. I'll have to take a shot at fixing the |
| 23 |
ebuild so it doesn't depend on apache and webapp-config unless you |
| 24 |
install it USE flags telling it you want it to use apache and |
| 25 |
webapp-config. |
