I want to do an ebuild for some programs but have never done one. I've read the Gentoo docs on ebuilds and eclasses and the man pages for ebuild. However, in looking at some ebuilds - noticably flight gear and wine-cvs I see variables such a $PV defined. The docs mention $P but not $PV or other variables. I've browsed some of the eclasses trying to find the definitions and haven't been successful. Where are these explained. Are there any more docs I can read? Thanks. -- Brett I.
