Rename works for me. Changelog: # UPGRADE URGENCY: HIGH for Redis, LOW for Sentinel. There is a potentially critical bug fix causing data loss in Redis but it requires a combination of disk full and the use of the SHUTDOWN command. * [FIX] Fixed data loss when SHUTDOWN was used with a disk full condition. * [FIX] Fixed a memory leak in the SORT syntax error processing. * [FIX] When Sentinel down-after-milliseconds parameter is modified at runtime now it gets propagated to all the slaves and sentinel instances of the master. * [FIX] `install_server.sh` script finally fixed. * [FIX] Different fixes to maxclients handling. * [NEW] Sentinels are now able to send update messages in a peer-to-peer fashion even if no Redis instances are available. Now the Sentinel liveness property that the most updated configuration in a given partition is propagated to all the Sentinels is extended to partitions without reachable instances. * [NEW] Sentinel safety properties are now ensured in a crash-recovery system model since some state is persisted on disk before replying to other nodes, and reloaded at startup. * [NEW] Sentinel now uses CLIENT SETNAME so that it is easy to identify Sentinels using CLIENT LIST among other clients. * [NEW] Sentinel failure detection and reconnection code improved. * [NEW] Use all 24 bits (instead of 22) for the Redis objects LRU field. Note that the new LRU algorithm using eviction pools was not backported from unstable for safery / code maturity concerns. * [NEW] Majory speedup for the INFO command (it is now 6 times faster). * [NEW] More Sentinel unit tests. * [NEW] New command DEBUG ERROR returns the specified error. Example: DEBUG ERROR "LOADING database". This is handy to write Redis client libraries unit tests. * [NEW] redis-cli now supports multi-line editing via updated linenoise lib. Thanks to Matt Stancliff and Jan-Erik Rediger for the work done in the context of this release.
Created attachment 373538 [details] redis-2.8.8.ebuild In the spirit of gentoo, I decided to decouple hiredis from the ebuild. We now dep on dev-libs/hiredis (which is slightly newer) and link to it.
Created attachment 373540 [details, diff] redis-2.8.8-hiredis.patch
I guess what we additionally could do is add IUSE=static which would build and link against bundled jemalloc and hiredis. What does the other maintainers think?
I'm actually getting some errors in specific redis-cli commands. If you're trigger happy on bumping, leave hiredis patch out of it.

Due to my limited time availability, I'm inclined to leave this ebuild as such and only do a version bump, would that be acceptable to you ? If so, I'll bump this and this will give you more time to accomodate a possible hiredis split (which tbh sounds too zealous to me).
Hey, just verbumping is fine. The hiredis build will have to wait until I've managed to update hiredis in deps/ upstream. Thanks for helping out.
kthx mate, done +*redis-2.8.8 (31 Mar 2014) + + 31 Mar 2014; Ultrabug <ultrabug@gentoo.org> +redis-2.8.8.ebuild: + version bump fix #505818 thx to Johan Bergström +
