Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2012-11-24 15:12:46 UTC 
File headers refer to LEGAL_NOTICE for license, but that file is not included in the package's tarball. HOMEPAGE is dead, so no info from there.
Comment 1 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-29 13:03:55 UTC 
Probably we should tree clean it. Alternative should be dos2unix.
Comment 2 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2012-11-29 15:28:15 UTC 
I've sent an e-mail to upstream, asking for clarification.

I agree. There should be enough alternatives, besides dos2unix also app-text/recode.
Comment 4 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-02-24 09:03:07 UTC 
Still no reply from upstream. CCing treecleaners.
Comment 5 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-04-27 18:25:34 UTC 
+# Ulrich Müller <ulm@gentoo.org> (27 Apr 2013)
+# HOMEPAGE and SRC_URI dead, no license, upstream cannot
+# be contacted. Use app-text/dos2unix or app-text/recode
+# as replacement. Masked for removal in 30 days, bug #444576.
+app-text/duconv
