1 Hey,

3 # Seamonkey
4 Seamonkey is currently being neglected in Gentoo as no one in the
5 mozilla project care or has time for it. The currently packaged versions
6 won't build with newer non-vulnerable rust, and therefore seamonkey is
7 currently blocking a (security) cleanup for rust. It needs a dedicated
8 maintainer for ::gentoo (or someone interested to join the mozilla
9 project), and if no one steps up, it will be cleaned along with rust's
10 security cleanup. Bug #824066

12 # npapi-sdk
13 This package has served its purpose and none of the available browsers
14 support or depend on it anymore. Its upstream is also long gone. Removal
15 in ~30 days. Bug #831819
