Greetings, just starting a routine upgrade I found the following in the "emerge" output:
!!! The following installed packages are masked: - sys-boot/unetbootin-702::gentoo (masked by: package.mask) /var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/package.mask: # Andreas Sturmlechner <[email protected]> (2025-09-16) # Abandoned upstream, based on Qt5, "must be run as root", then fails to # start w/ current kde-plasma/kdesu-gui[X] within Wayland sessions too. # Removal on 2025-10-16. Bug #957179 In the past I used this package to update the bootable image on my reco- very USB stick, but now this no longer seems to be a good idea :-( What are others using to create a bootable USB stick? Sincerely, Rainer
