[gentoo-user] module-init-tools : masked opponent

[Philip Webb]

Doing my usual Saturday system update, I saw a prominent msg
telling me that 'module-init-tools' has been masked
& to use 'kmod' or 'modutils' -- the msgs vary -- to replace it.
When I did so (both), Nvidia wouldn't start, even after remerging it.
Back with 'module-init-tools' -- now in 'package.unmask' -- all is well.

Does anyone know what's going on ? -- did I miss a 'news' item ?
