Michael, chose you semi-randomly from the Changelog. Could you test and maybe find someone for maintanance/metadata.xml, please? :)
I'd like to see the tcltk group take this over and add expect to the tcltk herd.

expect-5.42.1 is stable and that works fine for me (emerge -C expect && emerge expect)
