I've created an ebuild for net-misc/zerotier [1]. This has a BDEP on app-text/ronn, the build system uses it to create the man pages. The trouble is that ronn is a Ruby program and pulls in a shedload of dependencies, just to install man pages.
It seems to me to make more sense to put pre-built man pages in
${FILESDIR}/${PV} and copy them with doman. Is this considered the
correct or acceptable way to deal with this?
