Ebuilds: media-gfx/f4l

F4L is an open source development environment for Macromedia Flash, a multi-platform format(swf/svg) widely used for web applications and vector animation.

I have found out that there is no existing ebuild yet for this cool project. It is not included in the official Gentoo Portage yet.

Here is the ebuild. Use at your own risk. I assume you already have a working overlay of your local portage.

in file f4l-0.2.1.ebuild

Enjoy!

  1. This package is in the sunrise overlay already, and you might want to watch http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82154 if you are interested in it :)
