Am I misreading it?
There does seem to be an open bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/924493

If this one does not match your issue, please file a bug:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Bugzilla/Bug_report_guide

Thanks in advance, have a lovely day.


Would that make the package not emerge?   I can't imagine a more
mature
package ...



The package must have worked once.  Is it possible and practical to
get an earlier, working version out of git?



I'm currently using the ftp in /net-ftp/ftp-0.17.34.0.2.5.1/ and
it's broken - it doesn't send the last block.

Other FTPs listed in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/FTP have different
command syntax, which breaks my expect(1) script.



The inetutils on nixos runs fine.  I wonder why gentoo can't get it
working ...

I assume you're trying to build inetutils with the ftp use flag set?
net-ftp/ftp blocks inetutils in that case, you need to remove
net-ftp/ftp first.


Can you give some more information about that?  E.g. how one package can
block another one?

I removed net-ftp/ftp (good riddance):

   $ equery l net-ftp/ftp
   !!! No installed packages matching 'net-ftp/ftp'
     * Searching for ftp in net-ftp ...

But I'm still getting the same problem:

   emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "net-misc/inetutils".

   emerge: searching for similar names...
   emerge: Maybe you meant any of these: net-misc/iputils,
   net-misc/tipcutils, net-misc/bridge-utils?
