I'm sorry, I did not want to be pushy in any way... :|

Lastrite is probably better in this case. Not much has changed recently and 
texlive is current afaik.

Done, also [email protected]. (Gimme more Bugzilla mails...) :)

I see the separate ebuilds more as a temporary workaround for the few really 
needing bleeding edge... and will happily remove them again when texlive-2011 
is out. The natbib ebuild might even become obsolete with texlive-2010 
already, have not checked yet. I think most people will be happy with the 
texlive version, so we should keep it for simplicity.

Thanks for the tips with the ebuilds; I'll go ahead in the next days.

Best, Andreas
