I've seen several references to TaxGeek at sites like Slashdot. I'm surprised that it isn't in Portage, and a search of the forums finds no hits. Has anyone else here used this?

My experience is that it installs and works just fine as described on the web page. I had to manually install PDF::Reuse, as I didn't find an ebuild for that perl module.

Bringing back the old topic.

I tried using it last year (however I had already invested in one of the commercial packages so I didn't really use it.) This year I've been using it and it seems to work. There were some minor bugs that I think are fixed in the release that went out today.
