It would be neat to have the installed files parametrised, s.t. the scripts and buildroots can be installed into an arbitrary directory.
Maybe a Makefile would be a neat way to do this, which preprocesses e.g. gebuild.m4 with the m4 macro expander.

That's a good idea, do you think this could be used to allow unprivileged users to create subsystems (also addressing this concern)?

Even though we said we'd concentrate on other things, since the manpages will be generated during install time by looking at the docstrings in the scripts/**.sh, we will need a makefile anyways.

This has been added in 424d741, hence I am closing this commit.

@TheChymera You will need to update your personal -9999.ebuild, look into the .gentoo-directory for guidance (you should probably just copy the file, minus the src_unpack and plus some inherit git-r3)
