[quote="a.b."]ebuild foo-1.ebuild digest[/quote]

Just this this way will it then make the code i the manifest file ?

So it is just write : ebuild test-4444.ebuild manifest
and all thing for the manifest file will come intor to emerge test-4444 will run the ebuild.

`ebuild foo-1.ebuild digest` is incorrect. That is the old way. The new way is:

[quote="overkll"]`ebuild foo-1.ebuild digest` is incorrect. That is the old way. The new way is:
[code]ebuild /path/to/ebuild/foo-1.0.ebuild manifest[/code]

ok, first make the .ebuild file and then make the manifest file with:

ebuild /path/path/makenl.ebuild manifest

Quote from `man ebuild`:
[code] manifest
Updates the manifest file for the package. This performs the
second half of the digest command, creating md5sums for the
files in the files directory as well as the ebuild.

I will the look at the ebuild example file and use man ebuild to see more here.
