Someone kindly started up a basic ebuild for SMB here

I'd love to see L-SMB in portage, although I myself might wait until 1.3 or so before using an ebuild.

In particular it might be nice to make it depend on all the correct perl
dependencies?

I should think at least:
    dev-perl/DBD-Pg
    dev-perl/libwww-perl

Plus whatever else is required?

I think:
  dev-perl/locale-maketext-lexicon
  dev-perl/ConfigReader
  dev-perl/module-build
  dev-perl/MIME-Lite

I believe that in Portage the dev-perl/libwww-perl you mention may in fact be a dependency of one of these.

I also used app-portage/g-cpan to install Config-Std. I'm not sure if this could safely be done by the L-SMB ebuild (I had to configure my Portage overlay first), but I believe that Config-Std _is_ a dependency and that `g-cpan` would therefore be the correct way to install this under Gentoo. Perhaps an einfo or ewarn message within the ebuild would be appropriate, instead.

Stroller.
