Description Michael Palimaka (kensington) gentoo-dev 2009-04-22 16:13:00 UTC
For some reason Gentoo calls 'gateway6' 'freenet6'. Upstream, tarball, manpage etc. all calls it 'gateway6'. 'freenet6' is only the name of one possible tunnel broker.

It is confusing to have the package name and /etc/ directory conflicting with everything else, so I therefore suggest that this package be renamed appropriately.
