It is documented here:

and here:


But if you have never used Emacs, then it may not be obvious how to
write a proper site-init file.

Can you file a bug please? I think it doesn't make much sense to
continue discussion on a public list.

Also, my apologies, I do now see Emacs in the title, I somehow didn't see
that the first time so I'm apparently blind :(

It's proper English, and if you didn't immediately get it, the body
of the message did the job. Last time I checked, pidgin wasn't the norm
here.

Title of the mail is a little confusing/distracting/misleading and kinda
made it hard for me to initially understand what you were trying to do, not
to mention, one has to read the mail to ascertain what its trying to ask
prior to knowing if it is valid or not.

( And by that I mean, the title is such that people may not consider it
relevant to them when it is, or may consider it relevant to them when it is
not ).

For example, a better title would perhaps have been "Advice on installing
emacs libraries/utilities in a non-emacs specific package?" Or similar. (
specifically having "emacs" and "advice" in your topic ).

[gentoo-dev] Call to Emacs Gentoo Devs: Help Make My Package Pretty?

[Jason A. Donenfeld]

Hey Emacs Gentoo Devs,

I maintain the app-admin/pass ebuild. Inside the contrib/emacs directory of
the tarball/gitrepo there is "password-store.el" and "Cask" (<
http://git.zx2c4.com/password-store/tree/contrib/emacs>).

I probably want to add an emacs USE flag that RDEPENDs on virtual/emacs,
and then does something with the aforementioned files in src_install (or
maybe src_compile too?). I see there's an elisp-install function and
something else about site functions, but truth be told, I'm a heathen vim
user, and know nothing about emacs.

Would somebody help me to make the ebuild do the right thing with the emacs
stuff? It would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Jason
