2.4 is no longer in portage, which means there must be something wrong |
| 13 |
with it. It wouldn't have been removed otherwise. The Changelog will |
| 14 |
probably tell you more. In this case, upgrading to 2.4-r1 is almost |
| 15 |
certainly the best option, and change package.mask accordingly. |
