Description Michael Mair-Keimberger (mm1ke) 2019-02-08 08:57:57 UTC
Hi, 

I think we can remove this package from the tree.
* This package is the last consumer of libgcrypt:11 - see bug #656378 and bug #656372
* open bugs - see bug #667004, bug #648466
* maintainer seems to be inactive too, see comment3 on bug #656378
* There are also two bugs requesting for version bump of this package (bug #661740 and bug #667006). However, AFAICS newer Version's of the package are only provided as AppImage files. I'm not aware of any portage feature to install AppImage files, which makes it almost(?) impossible to create ebuilds for those Formats...

Please don't semi-randomly throw libgcrypt:11 in the pot together with this. Some proprietary software needs it.
