Hi all,
recently, I have written an ebuild for the program sci-chemistry/gabedit
and published it at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=279438
I am a chemist, so please excuse the following questions. ;)
What will now happen with the published ebuild? Can I somehow help
getting it to portage?
Is the bugreport configured correctly or did I make a mistake, due to
the fact that I am a noob in respect of writing ebuilds? I read many
docs about publishing and writing ebuilds, I checked the ebuild using
repoman, and really tried to do everything correctly.
While checking the ebuild with repoman and reading the docs, I realized
that I have to create a ChangeLog and a metadata.xml. Do I have to post
them and the Manifest somewhere, too?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
kind regards,

well, bug wranglers will assign it to the right herd/dev and someone of that
group will post his/hers comments. From that point on - you will see.
I don't think that you need to attach a changelog - or manifest. Manifest is
easily generated so that can IMHO wait until the final version that goes to the
tree is found
