Installing outside of portage...do I have to? :(

Top O' tha Mornin'
I'm trying to install this package:
XML-Filter-Namespace-1.03.tar.gz

The problem is that I can't find it in the portage tree. Is there an emerge --flag that I can specify to grab the package from:

http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/S/SE/SEMANTICO/XML-Filter-Namespace-1.03.tar.gz

so that it will configure, install, and register the above package in the portage tree? I've never written an ebuild before, and can't right now. Thanks for any input.

Best regards,

Jacob

you can write your own ebuild, or make a bugreport and wait
for first option, there are a lot of how-to's and i think it is not so hard...

try /usr/lib/portage/bin/g-cpan.pl
