Thanks for the tip. I added "failed to install genlop (via dobin)" -
not sure if there is a standard way to do this, as it seems many ebuilds

Absolutely, +1. This does indeed sound like a technical issue; how

Assuming that the file extension must change to prevent current PMs from

I think a better solution, if we need to indicate this, is to have
bugzilla grab the status from devaway and display it next to the dev's
