gentoo ebuild stuff

--- NEW FILE: readme.gentoo ---
To build Octaviz for Gentoo Linux, you will need to get ebuilds for
VTK and Octaviz.  In addition to the ebuilds provided here, you may
also find them at bugs.gentoo.org.  Specifically,

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25335

for VTK and

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70085

for Octaviz.

You will need >=vtk-4.4 for Octaviz to work.  Exporting PS/PDF from
Octaviz will require VTK to be built with gl2ps support.  Therefore
you should Choose your VTK ebuild carefully.  The ebuild provided here
is currently the recommended version, but other acceptable ebuilds may
appear at bugs.gentoo.org in the future.

To use the ebuilds provided here, expand the tar.gz files into
/usr/local/portage.  Add these lines to /etc/portage/package.keywords

dev-libs/vtk ~x86
app-sci/octaviz ~x86

Then you may emerge.  Compile times will be very long!  The USE flags
"doc" and "data" will install extra documentation, examples, and
example data for VTK.  If you get "no manifest" or "no digest" errors,
do

# ebuild foo.ebuild digest

to (re)generate the necessary manifest and digest files.

Soon there should be binary gentoo packages available to save you the
long compile time.  This readme will indicate where to get them once
a suitable location is found.

Comments, suggestions, bug repports and patches are welcome (you can
use mailing lists at SourceForge or send to
jjs...@us...).
