While this should be a fairly simple package to maintain, people
insist on breaking the underlying libraries it depends on:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293091
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=297335
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=328137
Things did not improve when upstream then switched to a build system
so broken it was easier to hand-crank things in the ebuild (scons).
I will be masking this package by the end of this week for removal in 30 days.
If you want, go get it and take my name out of metadata.xml; personally I've had
enough of it. I believe a newer 1.18 version is out that you could bump the ebuild to.
Thanks in advance if you decide to take on this challenge.
Regards,
Tony V.
