The bad way would be to issue "ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/vde/vde-1.5.8.ebuild digest" to rigenerate the meta-info, and re-emerge vde. The better way is to use an overlay (eg, /usr/local/portage), copy the ebuild there, modify it and run the above commands on _that_ copy of the ebuild. See here for more info about portage overlays: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=5 http://gentoo-wiki.com/Portage_Overlay http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_3rd_Party_Ebuilds (your modified ebuild becomes sort of a "3rd party" ebuild) And don't forget to file a bug with the results.
