net-wireless/blueberry has no future since it will never work with recent gnome-bluetooth versions. Even Linux Mint, which it had been designed for, has switched to blueman. So my idea was rather to remove blueberry, I do not think it is widely used among gentoo users.

That sounds fine to me as well.

Please mask net-wireless/blueberry and net-wireless/gnome-bluetooth:2 for removal in that case.
