If you can provide source snapshots, I will be happy to package on
Gentoo. In ~arch/unstable specifically for people to test and etc.

Can't say their is a big user base of Firebird/Jaybird on Gentoo. But I
would like to think some other than myself use it :)

I would be happy to test myself but don't use to many advance features.
Just habits from using it for a long time in the manors I need to I
guess :) Still want to make some apps using the services api and etc ;)
