[mythtv] Gentoo CVS ebuild

[Chris Pinkham]

Out of curiosity (and maybe expressing my Gentoo ignorance), is the MythTV
.ebuild setup good enough so that I could take a freshly installed Gentoo
system with only the stage1/2/3 tarball and do an "emerge mythtv-cvs" and
it would install everything necessary to get Myth up and running?  I took
a quick look at the dependencies and it looked like it could be but
wanted to see.  I'm considering gentoo for use in a 2nd/new MythTV box
at home and was curious if this is at that level yet.  If so this is great.
