Gentoo ebuild for Lilypond 2.5.8

[Daniel Johnson]

I've attached a Gentoo ebuild for Lilypond 2.5.8 which I've just 
verified compiles just fine.

Some notes:

- You'll need to create a custom ebuild for >=app-text/mftrace-1.1.1.  
(1.1.2 is the latest.)  You can do this by renaming the latest official 
Gentoo ebuild.

- This ebuild requires ghostscript-afpl instead of plain-vanilla 
ghostscript (which is actually ESP Ghostscript).  This is because  ESP 
Ghostscript is at version 7.07 and ghostscript-afpl is up to 8.50 (8.15 
is the latest stable in Gentoo).  Ghostscript 7 will hang when Lilypond 
is trying to parse les-nereides.ly and various mutopia examples.  The 
downside of this is that AFPL Ghostscript may not ship with all of the 
CUPS printer drivers that are present in the ESP product.  If you are 
worried about this, you might want to keep your existing Ghostscript and 
instead edit the GNUmakefiles in the source tarball to omit processing 
of les-nereides and the mutopia directory.  In that case, in this ebuild 
replace the ">=app-text/ghostscript-afpl-8.15" with 
"virtual/ghostscript".  Or, just unmerge the AFPL product after you've 
emerged Lilypond, and re-emerge the ESP product.

- This ebuild was created under the presumption that you are emerging as 
root.  If you are emerging as any other user, you'll probably get 
sandbox violations.

- In your /etc/portage/package.keywords file, you'll want the following, 
to tell Portage to use "unstable" packages.  Of course, if you are using 
an architecture other than x86, perform the obvious substitutions:
media-sound/lilypond ~x86
app-text/t1utils ~x86
media-fonts/ec-fonts-mftraced ~x86
media-gfx/potrace ~x86
media-gfx/fontforge ~x86
app-text/mftrace ~x86
