Description Filip Kobierski 2024-08-10 22:15:05 UTC
I think this package should be treecleaned as:
- Upstream doesn't exist (neither the SRC_URI or search engine results)
  However, the package emerges fine on amd64
  https://oss.oracle.com/projects/endpoint/
- package has been barely maintained since 2015 (EAPI bump from 0 to 7 in 2019 & one QA)
  https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/commits/master/sys-block/endpoint
- Only we ship it
  https://repology.org/project/endpoint/versions
- has had unresolved bugs for over a year

1. Upstream doesn't exist (neither the SRC_URI or search engine results)
   -> that is bad, perhaps we can find a fork or the new place?

   However, the package emerges fine on amd64
   -> most important

2. package has been barely maintained 
   -> ebuild do not perish if they are not changed often 

3. Only we ship it
   -> that is fine, but of course good to know

4. has had unresolved bugs for over a year
   -> These bugs are not critical
