++ for the eclass, the README.gentoo might submerge into the users handling of Gentoo Systems. (I always laughed about README.Debian) [1] show an report about exactly the non-atomar situation of elog and application usage. While [2] complained about elog cluttering, I try to migrate x11-wm/xpra-0.8.0 (upcoming), am I doing it right? DOC_CONTENTS=""" please make your Xorg binary readable for users of xpra chmod a+r /usr/bin/Xorg and think about the security impact A copy at ~/.xpra/Xorg matching the current modules is sufficient. """ ^^ clearly would benefit from non-formatting. repoman full complains about "Ebuild contains leading spaces on line".
