I just wanted to build an ebuild for guarddog and found it by accident under net-misc. 
Guarddog is a firewall-utility and really belongs to net-firewall, doesn't it? 
And there is already an ebuild for the very stable version 2.0.0. I know it works fine 
on i386, the ebuild for nearly half a year and there are no bugs in the database. 
Couldn't the 2.0.0.ebuild unmasked? I think, there's just nobody at the moment, who 
takes care of this ebuild.

I think the guarddog ebuilds require a SLOT="0" line. All versions are a continued development 
on the same product with no consistancies. Guarddog 2.1.4 works with the same ebuild as 
2.0.0. 2.1.4 is still listed as a development version by the author. I also have found guarddog to 
be very stable on 2.0.0. Picky note sorry but ChangeLog top line still reflects former location 
net-misc.
