Description Andrew D Kirch 2009-03-25 20:40:57 UTC

see bug 56603.  This package has been in portage since 2004.  It does not appear to have ever had a maintainer, and 1.5 and 1.6 are going to require massive ebuild rewrites to fix some very nasty sandbox issues.  (The ./configure script tries to START net-snmp on the system).  I'm going to try to fix it in spare time but right now it has no reason to be in teh tree.

I'm confused. I don't see xorp in the tree.

bug 56603 says it is in sunrise. Any user can commit to sunrise then it is reviewed.. I suggest you talk to the admins in #gentoo-sunrise and get this one fixed up.

Anyway, we don't need another bug for something that you are working on in a different bug. resolving as invalid
