It's not in portage either, but it only consists of one .jar - it's a java application. It's here: http://multivalent.sf.net > If I can't find one, this may be the ideal time to learn how to do ebuilds. That's an easy one. Although there's a handbook, I'd suggest starting with looking at small, not too complex existing ebuilds. Create yourself a portage overlay directory and configure it in /etc/make.conf (see example file). Make a directory there, e.g. app-text/etr and create the ebuild in there. When you've done the ebuild, you have to create a digest using "ebuild etr-1.2.3.ebuild digest". Then you can install it using "emerge etr". But beware, wxWindows on Gentoo is not for the faint at heart due to it's many versions... -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
