Hi,
   I'm looking for the location that emerge/ebuild places the source
code prior to building it. 

1) I've found the ebuild itself in /usr/portage/<group>/<package>

and...

2) I've found the tarball in /usr/portage/distfiles

but...

I cannot spot where the source itself actually resides. Unfortunately
for me the ebuild reads like a foreign language as I'm not a programmer.
It seems to say the source would be in ${FILESDIR} but trying something
like 'echo ${FILESDIR}' as root returns nothing.

Thanks in advance,
Mark
