The problem is not security, the problem is that there is no maintainer |
5 |
for rolo and it's deps. Maintainer should unmask the package but seems |
6 |
that nobody of gentoo developers want to maintain it and I can |
7 |
understand them ;). rolo has dead upstream as there was no new releases |
8 |
for more then 3 years. This means that to fix any bug maintainer has to |
9 |
look into sources, and fix it by himself... No joy if you are not using |
10 |
this application. |

Thus currently the best solution is to unmask it locally as it was |
13 |
already told you and may be even copy |
14 |
dev-libs/libvc |
15 |
mail-client/mutt-vc-query |
16 |
app-misc/rolo |
17 |
into your local overlay, as if this situation persist rolo could be |
18 |
removed from portage completely. |
