I have not tried this myself but you can try to copy $DISTDIR/svn-src |
| 13 |
to $WORKDIR and use 'ebuild name-of-the-ebuild.ebuild |
| 14 |
{install,qmerge}' to install it manually. See 'man ebuild' for |
| 15 |
reference. |
| 16 |
|

Maybe you should do 'ebuild name-of-the-ebuild.ebuild unpack' before |
| 18 |
so hopefully all other stuff in $WORKDIR is created besides the work |
| 19 |
folder itself which fails because of the missing sources. Then copy |
| 20 |
the sources manually and run install and qmerge. |
