Description Michał Górny archtester

Please check whether the use of 'einstall' in this ebuild is actually
needed. From a quick glance at the Makefile, it seems to have proper
support for DESTDIR.

Therefore, if possible please replace the call to 'einstall' with proper
'default' or 'emake DESTDIR="${D}" install'. Thanks.

Hi Michal

Thanks for pointing this out. Indeed, it does work with emake. I've attached a patch with your suggestion. I'm going to revbump the ebuild for the time being.
