The ebuild needs to be in the regular portage or PORTDIR_OVERLAY directories. From what you said the patch ebuild was in root - that won't work.

Yes, I have PORTDIR_OVERLAY defined, but this doesn't really address my
question. In particular, I had some difficulty installing the patch from a
gentoo maintainer:


# ebuild gnome-panel-2.4.0-r2.ebuild unpack
!!! aux_get(): ebuild for '/gnome-panel-2.4.0-r2' does not exist at:
!!! /usr/portage//gnome-panel/gnome-panel-2.4.0-r2.ebuild


gnome-panel-2.4.0-r2.ebuild is in the pwd (~root), from whicn I'm running
this command. What am I missing? The man page defines the syntax as
'ebuild file command [command]...'
