Hi,

the ebuild of media-sound/setmixer
shows a dead link: https://packages.debian.org/unstable/sound/setmixer
Unfortunately I couldn't find a new/valid homepage.

Thanks!

Thanks for the report. Gentoo is the last distribution with this package. 
https://repology.org/project/setmixer/versions
It has no upstream source. The (very short) source is from 1994.

Do you (or anyone else) need this tool?

Code without upstream source is unwanted in Gentoo.
If there is really a need for this tool we can find a solution, but for now I suggest to last rite the package.

Me not. I just found the 404 by accident.
