This one caught me by surprise. |

So, it looks like the versions of net-misc/electrum (the Bitcoin client) in |
| 4 |
Gentoo's repository are in pretty good shape. The version of |
| 5 |
net-misc/electrum-ltc (the Litecoin client) in the Gentoo repository looks |
| 6 |
like it's two years old. (For those who are unfamiliar the Litecoin client |
| 7 |
is downstream of the Bitcoin client, both projects share a lot of the same |
| 8 |
code.) I checked upstream and the current version of electrum-ltc appears |
| 9 |
to have been bumped to Python 3.8 and it looks like the old aiorpcX |
| 10 |
(#792219) issue that was causing such a headache has also been fixed as of |
| 11 |
a PR this past February. See my note in #792219. |

Pardon my ignorance, but couldn't this package be salvaged by repurposing |
| 14 |
the net-misc/electrum ebuild code to bring the net-misc/electrum-ltc |
| 15 |
package current? Is the situation more complicated than that? |
