Okay. Understood!
I would like to have a look in how an ebuild is constructed.
I figured out how to create an rpm and now want to know how it looks like for
an ebuild.
I didn't receive the actual Mail of Nick.
Can you send it to me again? Or can I download it from the gentoo project

Thanks for the additional comments. Am I to understand, then, that I can
emerge sudo without the use of skey? Since I'm still not entirely sure what
its function is, I'd feel better leaving it alone. If so, then I'll get it
emerged and follow the posts to get it setup..

It compiles sudo with support for One Time (or "single key) passwords.
OpenSSH also supports skey.

OpenSSH also supports skey.
It? Do you mean the latest kernel? or a stage3 build with genkernel? (I know
that skey isn't in the default list of use flags)...

better to use vanilla-sources
