Description Matthias Maier gentoo-dev

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 drop all old versions that depend on media-libs/lcms:0, 
* or hard-disable an optional dependency on media-libs/lcms:0.

Thank you!
