Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2018-09-20 06:56:04 UTC
dev-libs/beecrypt is a candidate for removal, and util-vserver is its only remaining revdep (debugedit will be gone after stabilization).
Comment 1 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2018-11-11 11:49:00 UTC
Also requires dietlibc
Comment 2 Tor Rune Skoglund 2019-03-20 08:40:42 UTC
I would ask to put this removal on hold for a little time. There are discussions going on to bring the packages fully up to date. 

Actually, beecrypt is not required. nss can be used instead with --with-crypto-api=nss .

The dietlibc dependency is also being considered.

Please?

Hi Tor

Thanks for stepping up to maintain this ebuild.

If you're really keen on keeping this ebuild in the tree, consider filing a PR at https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo. I will review it and get it merged. I will then lift the package mask.

ebuild with beecrypt and nss USE flags

With this ebuild, beecrypt and nss crypto apis are optional; nss is selected by default.

If neither beecrypt or nss USE flags are set, util-vserver is compiled with --with-crypto-api=none.

Package removed.
