Hey all,

I'm trying to build a Gentoo ebuild for Wackamole, and running into some
minor trouble.

First, Gentoo ebuilds, by default, download the source tarball for each
compile.  That doesn't work with the enter-your-email-address CGI.  It's
a small tarball, so it's possible the gentoo developers will host it on
their own mirrors, but it would be great if you could provide a URL
against which a 'wget' would work.

Second, and more importantly, I just ran into the same error as reported
here:

http://lists.backhand.org/pipermail/wackamole-users/2004-December/000393.html

that was almost two years ago!  My ebuild is currently downloading the
most recent version (2.1.1), but it seems that doesn't compile.  I will
change that to do a CVS checkout, but before the ebuild gets
incorporated into Gentoo proper, it should have a functional release
tarball.  Any word on when that will happen?

Thanks!

Dustin
