Description Matthias Maier gentoo-dev 2014-10-25 22:51:29 UTC 
media-libs/lcms:0 is unmaintained, has seen no releases since 2009, and (according to upstream) is affected by unspecified serious security issues. Please 

* either upgrade your package to use media-libs/lcms:2, 
* or hard-disable an optional dependency on media-libs/lcms:0, 
* or mask your package for removal.

Thank you!

Upstream has lcms:2 support in a new version that was in fact released just recently :)

I added 1.2 to tree and disabled lcms support in older versions (including stable which is quite old, 1.2 will be stabled after the usual month)
