maybe a -9999 package can be done with this: http://git.linuxtv.org/media_build.git

i tried to build manualy and that seams to work

[Comment 2 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2011-04-28 16:00:02 UTC]

Removed from tree.   Use the in-kernel drivers.

If that isn't in Portage yet in any form, or in-kernel, please file a new bug with it.   This one is now closed.
