As I'm still working on Gentoo/FreeBSD project, and I'm trying to get KDE 
working there, I have a bit of a problem which I want to discuss with all the 
devs.

The problem is that: kde-base/kdesktop depends on eject (and probably is not 
the only one), but eject is a non-portable, linux-dependant program.
FreeBSD has its own version of eject, which I just added to fbsd's overlay as 
sys-apps/eject-bsd.
I'll also add to that overlay a kdesktop ebuild which depends || 
( sys-apps/eject sys-apps/eject-bsd) so to have the dependencies fullfilled.

This can't be done everytime, and hoping for, in future, having an universal 
eject (libcdio should allow that) I wanted to ask if is possible to add a 
virtual/eject provided by sys-apps/eject and sys-apps/eject-bsd so that they 
can be made dependencies as needed.

Comments?

Thanks,
