tidy-html5 is a fork from htmltidy which is likely now dead upstream. tidy-html5 contains support for html5 where htmltidy does not. So tidy-html5 should be a drop in replacement for htmltidy. Reproducible: Always
Hello, I wanted to add my support to this. I've been using tidy-html5 for a long time and I'm surprised to see Matthew's comment from just a few days ago, what a coincidence :) The app-text/htmltidy in portage is long dead, and tidy-html5 is very much alive.
commit c0bfb00 (HEAD, master) Author: Patrice Clement <monsieurp@gentoo.org> Date: Sat Nov 21 10:48:53 2015 +0000 app-text/tidy-html5: Initial import. Fixes bug 564884. Package-Manager: portage-2.2.20.1 Signed-off-by: Patrice Clement <monsieurp@gentoo.org> create mode 100644 app-text/tidy-html5/Manifest create mode 100644 app-text/tidy-html5/metadata.xml create mode 100644 app-text/tidy-html5/tidy-html5-5.1.9.ebuild Tidy programs/scripts are useful and it's a no brainer we must add tidy5 to Portage. I'm taking over maintainership and I'm going to mask app-text/htmltidy.

Removal on hold for the time being: the mask entry in package.mask has been deleted. https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/genrdeps/rindex/app-text/htmltidy The list of rdeps has to be sorted out and worked through first.
Please could you wait till app-text/tidy-html5 has stable keywords
html-tidy has started issuing new releases at http://www.html-tidy.org/ (it's linked from the sourceforge page that set as this package's homepage). They've put out a new release just this September.
Never mind me, both htmltidy and tidy-html5 appear to be the same project.

So this is holding off a security vulnerability. Just circling back to see if we have made progress in a year.
monsieurp and I have talked about this on IRC and decided that since HTACG Tidy is an official continuation of W3C Tidy (see the 2015-01-25 news item on http://tidy.sourceforge.net/), we will gradually merge app-text/tidy-html5 into app-text/htmltidy. This expected to happen as follows: - new versions of HTACG Tidy will be added to the tree as ebuilds of app-text/htmltidy - done, we've already got app-text/htmltidy-5.8.0 in the tree; - packages depending exclusively on app-text/tidy-html5 will have >=app-text/htmltidy-5.0.0 as an alternative - done; - last-rite and remove <app-text/htmltidy-5.0.0 and app-text/tidy-html5 - pending "=app-text/htmltidy-5.8.0-r1 amd64 arm arm64 ppc ppc64 sparc x86" stabilisation, which will be requested on 2021-09-02.
Hi! I put together a final PR to get htmltidy masked, which I merged yesterday: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/22485. I've also sent out the last rites email: # Patrice Clement <monsieurp@gentoo.org> (2021-10-09) # Obsolete and unmaintained. Please switch to app-text/htmltidy. # Bug #564884. Masked for removal in 30 days. app-text/tidy-html5 Thank you all for your help, especially Marek. Let's begin the customary 30 day timeout.
