feel free to grab the code i originally committed and run `repoman
full` yourself.  no fatal errors.  in fact you can see the generated
tags in my commit message.

even then, deleting an ebuild purely due to different copyright is
complete bs.  anyone who understands copyright knows the situation in

patrick/QA wasting people's time to check a meaningless box.
