NAME
cron.eclass - Some functions for cronDESCRIPTION
Purpose: The main motivation for this eclass was to simplify the jungle known as src_install() in cron ebuilds. Using these functions also ensures that permissions are *always* reset, preventing the accidental installation of files with wrong perms.NOTE on defaults: the default settings in the below functions were chosen based on the most common setting among cron ebuilds.
