This package is lacking metadata.xml/maintainer.
mholzer, you have bumped it the last times. If you want to step up as maintainer, then add a metadata.xml file and bump the package pls.

If no one is willing to take maintainership, this package will probably be  masked/removed.

Adding the following to profiles/package.mask

+# <solar@gentoo> (18 Feb 2005)
+# All version below 1.3.17 have exploitable format string problems. The 
+# bidwatcher package lacks a maintainer and metadata and will most 
+# likely be punted from the tree. Bug #82460 (CAN-2005-0158)
