TL;DR: please revision-bump to EAPI=5 and stabilize app-text/pastebin

To be able to make full use of subslot-triggered rebuilds at Perl updates, the Perl team intends to make perl-module.eclass and perl-app.eclass support only
EAPI=5 (and eventually later EAPIs) in the foreseeable future.

Please consider, where applicable,
* bumping the newest version of your package to EAPI=5
* stabilizing an EAPI=5 version
* dropping old versions
to the end that at some point all non-EAPI=5 versions have been removed.

Thank you!

377 	# Dion Moult <moult@gentoo.org> (15 Sep 2014)
378 	# It has no support for new API since 2012. A good replacement of this package,
379 	# app-text/pastebinit, is already stabilized (bug #434366)
380 	# Masked for removal in 30 days
381 	app-text/pastebin


Must we go ahead and just remove it ?
