micoscope doesn't work, broken text/font rendering, doesn't have -bin in its name even though it installs a downloaded binary #30
Description
As mentioned above. Black boxes are shown instead of text. The ebuild should have -bin in its name as it doesn't compile, just installs a downloaded pre-compiled binary. I would prefer if it were adjusted to build from source instead!
# emerge -a micoscope
