I run several production servers on Hardened Gentoo, and have a concern. |

The perl team has been awesome. I really love that packages are fairly |
4 |
fresh compared to what is in cpan. However, there is one very important |
5 |
package that's been ignored for far too long: SpamAssassin |

Why has it been waiting for a mips keyword for almost two years? No |
10 |
reply from mips. Pinging the bug has no effect, as seen with comments |

#5-#8. Is the package abandoned? Is there some political issue with |
12 |
Gentoo that keeps abandoned packages from being reassigned? I would love |
13 |
to offer my help, but lately those offers have been flat rejected by |
14 |
Gentoo devs. I guess my lips don't pucker well enough. I would like to |
15 |
have this package dealt with. There are some important bug fixes in |
16 |
newer releases. |
