Sorry - I wasn't considering this aspect of the ebuild. All I have done 
- some months ago - is changed 2 lines of the ebuild to correct the 
/var path.

None of these are my implementations. I'm ashamed to admit that I don't

see a good ebuild for this package in the portage tree & modified those 
2 lines of the present one.
