Gentoo ebuild problems

    I have tried using the Gentoo ebuild for the last couple versions, and each time "ebuild xbgmsharp-0.9.1.0-10.ebuild digest" results in:
    !!! app-misc/xbgmsharp-0.9.1.0-10 does not follow correct package syntax.

    I myself am not really much of a programmer, I'm more of a hobbiest Linux user and have only made a few shell script myself, so I'm not exactly sure how to fix the ebuild. I am running 2.1.2_rc1-r1 of portage, which is still in ~x86 testing, but I'm not sure if this is the problem due to xbgmsharp ebuild being ~x86 as well.

      xbgmsharp - 2006-11-01

      In order to make it work you need to rename the ebuild xbgmsharp-0.9.1.0-15.ebuild
      to xbgmsharp-0.9.1.0-r15.ebuild.
      That's way it respect the Gentoo revision package syntax.

      Sorry about that.

        I should've noticed that. It was staring me in the face the entire time. Meanwhile, I thought it was a problem with the contents of the file. ^_^
