I'd be interested in maintaining this. It was removed from Portage a *long* time ago due upstream not being responsive to a bug report: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143897 outguess is still used. A couple of recent crypto challenges that require it for their solutions: https://potatopla.net/crypto/challenges/2/ https://cyphercon.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/fakecoin.jpg I'd be happy to look into the original issue with PPM files, though I have not tried reproducing yet.
Last outguess release was in 2001: https://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.wiretapped.net/pub/security/steganography/outguess/ Homepage is unavailable: http://www.outguess.org/ Homepage web-archive here: https://web.archive.org/web/20150419030527/http://www.outguess.org/ There's a more recent outguess-rebirth project: http://www.outguess-rebirth.com/ And tons of similar software: http://www.jjtc.com/Steganography/tools.html

The OutGuess program in particular seems to be popular for crypto challenges but maybe something else is available on Gentoo that does compatible DCT-based steganography.

We no longer use these bugs. See: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers/User_Guide#Taking_over_an_existing_package Long story short: 1. If your request has been fulfilled already and you're the maintainer, ignore this. 2. If you have submitted the ebuilds separately, we'll handle it there. If that's via a bug, please make sure that proxy-maint@ is in CC. Feel free to ping us if things aren't moving forward for a long time. 3. If you haven't submitted anything yet, please submit a meaningful change to the package (bugfix, version bump, ebuild update...) along with the maintainer update and you'll become the maintainer when we merge it. Sorry for the trouble.
