Some nitpicks.
Can you make it install its doc into share/doc/lives instead of
/share/doc/lives-version...
It misses the update-desktop-database goos and dependency.
iconv in WANTLIB can go (you are already using the gettext MODULE).
You can probably tighten the RUN_DEPENDS. For example you register
graphics/gdk-pixbuf2 but you already depends on multimedia/mjpegtools
which brings gtk+2 which has a dependency on gdk-pixbuf2 already.
This is a bad construct:
WRKDIST = ${WRKDIR}/${PKGNAME}
because when the package is bumped, WRKDIST will be wrong.
I had this on my porting todo for a while, I'm happy someone took a shot
at it, thanks :)
