Current package still uses old 'user' eclass. Please port to GLEP 81. If you need help, just ask.
I would like to try my hand at fixing this bug (as well as move the ebuild to EAPI 7 and version bump ddcutil) To remove enewgroup calls, RDEPEND for two packages will be required. "acct-group/video" (exists) and "acct-group/i2c" (needs to be created). There is an existing pull request on #18551 GH, which adds acct-group/i2c, but looks like it has been in review for a while. What would be the best course of action so as not to introduce unnecessary conflicts? Create a separate acct-group/i2c as part of this pull request?
I will have a look at the PR and will report back, when the group is merged.
OK, I will work in my branch and make a PR for now assuming that the i2c group will be created in PR #18551. Should this change - I can add the group later in my PR. Two questions for that scenario: * Do I understand that I should pick the ACCT_GROUP_ID at random as long as it does not collide with an existing ID and it's less than 1000? * What values should be specified in the maintainer section in metadata?

I added the missing groups, so please rebase :-)
Done
