Yes, I have talked with Benny about it and he will go on to make a
mbsebbs.ebuild for gentoo.
All Gentoo Ebuild for fidonet is been relased by the new fido file echo gentooapp.

The only thing there is for work of it that first have gentoo user root to
make the new user mbse.bbs and logout as root and login as the new user
mbse and then download the mbsebbs tar.bz2 file for full release and unpack
it and then configure + make and then su to root and install it right.

There could then be a mbsebbsupd.ebuild update to manage emrge to the
latest version and update, or it can be done by the first ebuild.


  Take care,
            Gert
