Hello,

Well if you follow gentoo-dev, there are numerous packages being purged,
for a variety of reason. One, that I am considering to 'proxy-maintain,
is dansguardian. I do have several questions::

1. Is it still relevant and useful to the community?

2. Is there a better alternative currently in portage?

3. I was trying to figure out a bit of syntax to get the listings of
the ebuild-packages on the chopping block, but nothing seems complete.
Any suggestions on urls, cli_syntax, or a script to ferret out the
packages on the chopping block and what has been picked up, would
be keenly appreciated.

Maybe some why to just search the gentoo-attic by date and/or category
and/or name is the way to have a tool to be able to go post-mortem
on package removals?



James
