Current stable version 2.27.57-r1 from portage tree is oudtated. Home page lists 2.40.65 as current stable version. Other machines with 2.40.65 refuse to work with 2.27.57-r1, so that is important issue. Reproducible: Always
Maybe 2.40.102 would be better for that slot
the current stable simply does not work anymore over ssh. (see Bug 347029). That means the main feature is unusable since 3 years. Therefore i propose to stabilize 2.40.* soon.
forgot to mention that 2.40.102 works flawless for me on 5 different computers. It also fixed some performance problems that lead to connections loss for huge collections (> 400GiB) for me.
What's going on here? Last stable version (2.27.57-r1) was removed now before stabilising anything new? Btw, 2.27.57-r1 used to work fine over NFS.
looks like this was moved to testing only
closing as this is in testing only
