BTW, ebuilds ARE pretty simple to use, especially for the few thing that are not in portage, which typically are little - rarely used - packages. here is an example for a perl module I needed that wasn't in portage:
Learn about Linux
Download Linux
Get Linux help
Re:whoopsy, that's not right...

inherit perl-module
DESCRIPTION="Math::Random"
HOMEPAGE="http://wiki/twiki/bin/view/Labo/Ebuild"
SRC_URI="http://mymachine/mirror/${P}.tar.gz"
SLOT="0"
LICENSE="Artistic"
KEYWORDS="x86 amd64"
IUSE=""
SRC_TEST="do"
In many cases all I have to do is to copy an existing ebuild and change the description!
