Description Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2017-07-19 07:03:16 UTC
I suggest to remove this package, because

* it is unmaintained
* could not find any server which is still usable for this software which renders the too useless
* upstream stopped development long ago

The project page warns:
"THIS PROJECT IS NOT DEVELOPED ANYMORE BECAUSE SERVER SUPPORT IS BROKEN ON ALMOST COUNTRIES"
http://linuxsms.sourceforge.net/

The ebuild will be archived after removal on 
https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/
