[gentoo-user] Anyone know why sys-apps/qtparted went masked

2006-07-26 Thread John J. Foster 
A couple days ago I noticed this:

garbanzo:/root # emerge -auvDNt world

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating world dependencies |
!!! Packages for the following atoms are either all
!!! masked or don't exist:
sys-apps/qtparted

... done!

garbanzo:/root # eix qtparted
* sys-apps/qtparted
 Available versions:  [M]0.4.4 [M]0.4.4-r1
 Installed:   0.4.4
 Homepage:http://qtparted.sourceforge.net/
 Description: nice Qt partition tool for Linux

It's definitely not a necessity that I have this, just more or less
curious why after running sys-apps/qtparted-0.4.4 for about 10 months
it changed.

Thanks,
festus

$ emerge -pv qtparted

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy qtparted have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
