Yeah, I'm
up for this. I'm not too familiar with making ebuilds, but it
looks to be fairly straightforward. At the moment, I've just set up a
hierarchy under /opt, where I manually (configure, make) compile +
install stuff. The trouble with this is that not all packages give the
option to specify a location (--foo-lib=DIR), and assumes stuff is
installed in /usr (grrr :)
Alrighty then. I've started to ask questions on the gentoo-user alias about
how best to deal with cvs ebuilds. Once there there are some answers i'll
put together a webpage for the files.
I considered going down the /opt path ;-) but it just isn't the gentoo way!

Greetings! I'm new to the list and a gentoo user. I've been playing with ebuilds.
I made one for jack-cvs and, which I'll email it to you, and to anyone else who
wants. I'm working on some others so if you find a place to throw them up I'd be
happy to contribute.
