| 1 | While this should be a fairly simple package to maintain, people |
| 2 | insist on breaking the underlying libraries it depends on: |

| 7 | Things did not improve when upstream then switched to a build system |
| 8 | so broken it was easier to hand-crank things in the ebuild (scons). |
| 9 | I will be masking this package by the end of this week for removal in 30 days. |

| 11 | If you want, go get it and take my name out of metadata.xml; personally I've had |
| 12 | enough of it. I believe a newer 1.18 version is out that you could bump the ebuild to. |
| 13 | Thanks in advance if you decide to take on this challenge. |
