desktop so I could do emerges in the background and still use my box...
Well tonight I emerged boost... The system maxed out and ran that way for an
hour without looking like it was going to complete anytime soon. Which

Just a few opinions from the outside looking in...

So how does one get involved? I'm a professional Java developer and a gentoo

Portage is great in that it manages compiles for a bulk of applications
(including dependencies) in one fell swoop.

Well, I've been plugging along happily on constructing an ebuild for zimbra.
But because of a) their built-in hardwiring and b) ant-based build/install
system, my ebuild is starting to get pretty big and complex.
In order to keep my own thought patterns straight, I've isolated a lot of the
code
Okay, so if I have a servlet to deploy to an application container such as
tomcat, is there an eclass that I can use to inherit from?
Obviously the webapp eclass helps for straight apache-like deployments, but
it's not going to help much when deploying to tomcat.
I looked in /usr/portage/ebuild
Okay, hopefully this works as I expect, but...
If I have an ant build.xml file that creates and populates an /opt/dnebing
directory but runs as part of an ebuild, will it actually create
the /opt/dnebing directory or is it made as part of the image
in /var/tmp/portage/dnebing/image directory?

Right. Just some config file tweaks to the various separate packages so
they know about each other, but nothing the package itself installs
Chris,
Thanks for your comments, and I'll work on the BO issue ;-)

Hey, folks.
I'm trying to write an ebuild, not my first, but definitely something
that is relatively new to me.
Anyways, I've got the following URL that pulls down the source package:

The file that gets downloaded is fpdf153.tgz.
