RabbitMQ 2.6.0 was released on August 31st.
And 2.6.1 was released on 12th September: http://lists.rabbitmq.com/pipermail/rabbitmq-discuss/2011-September/015033.html As usual, this fixes a few nasty bugs in 2.6.0 (in particular one that prevented the broker from starting on Debian and the ilk). No significant changes were made to the build system, so the ebuild from 2.5.1 should just work.
2.6.1 in cvs, thanks
