The general consensus seems to be to install 
to /usr/share/clipart/openclipart, so my ebuilds are all wrong :-(

Recently an 'official' openclipart ebuild has made it into the Portage tree, 
in x11-misc/openclipart. This seems to do the right thing, so perhaps it's 
best to use that one. It has some issues, but none critical right now.

I use kuickshow to go through them. It's not so good at previewing the SVG 
files, but it shows the PNG previews alongside.

Cheerio, Gavin.
