"As of December 15, 2017, AOL Instant Messenger products and services will be shut down and will no longer work."

Descriptions should not include AIM support anymore.
Ebuilds should compile the software without AIM support, if possible.
We last rite tools which depend on AIM and will remove these after 2017-12-20.
