Description Chicago 2017-03-20 03:58:28 UTC
Hello,

    I have reviewed the Gentoo Bug Reporting Guide as it pertains to Zero-day bump requests.  ZNC v1.6.5 was released 2017-Mar-12 21:02 per the upstream timestamp at http://znc.in/releases/ with the following changelog.

ZNC 1.6.5

== Fixes ==
* Fixed a regression of 1.6.4 which caused a crash in [[modperl]]/[[modpython]]. {{GH|1283}}
* Fixed the behavior of <code>verbose</code> command in the [[sasl]] module. {{GH|1291}}

    Kindly include an ebuild for net-irc/znc-1.6.5 at your earliest convenience.

    Additionally, please advise whether this external module may be included with the ebuild as an optional USE flag. http://wiki.znc.in/Antiidle  It provides a feature to help prevent IRC stalking.

    Thank you very much!

Best Regards,
-Chicago

Hi,
I opened a PR for the bump here: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/4303
I'm not sure I like adding back a module which was dropped more than 5 years ago. I'm pretty sure it's easy for you to compile it manually or to add it /etc/portage/patches.
Also, the commit says "If someone needs them, feel free to resurrect." so I guess you could simply open an upstream issue.

ZNC 1.6.5 was added a while back:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/net-irc/znc?id=1435e8b19be12bd06f0ef322a884bd70b9c05f6f
As for the antiidle module, please ask upstream to resurrect it: https://github.com/znc/znc/commit/7f8fbc2294dc86c162fe2fa4cc855c29a1582901
