This is a last rites package coming from who was known as the package |
| 2 |
undertaker (before antarus took my place, that is :P)... |

media-sound/fobbit is suffering from lack of maintainership, the description |
| 5 |
states that's a software to use Creative VoiceBlaster USB VoIP phone devices, |
| 6 |
so at a least it requires particular hardware to be used. |

|
| 8 |
The code contains a kernel module, built in an ancient way, and for what I can |
| 9 |
see it's not for Kernel 2.6, but rather for 2.2/2.4, which makes it difficult |
| 10 |
to manage anyway. |

| 12 |
The short changelog shows that the only gentoo developer actually taking care |
| 13 |
of it was jje (that I don't remember to have heard of) in 2003, and then |
| 14 |
eradicator marked it stable. After that, just other two entries from him, and |
| 15 |
one from me for a generic policy update.. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Anyway, will mask it, and remove it in 30 days if nobody has reasons to leave |
| 18 |
it in the tree. |
