Hi there net-proxy/squid needs your love. Bug #311927 and Bug #304751 require a version bump. Our user community did an excellent job there providing an improved ebuild for that. Furthermore there are several open security bugs wrt squid [1][2][3][4]. net-proxy herd what is your status? Security bugs should be your first priority. If you are unable to maintain certain packages you could ask for help instead of staying quiet. Maybe we should list this package as maintainer-needed and request some proxy-maintainers from our user community. What do you think about that?
@Council: Yet another example that we need to track the status of every single project in order to have a clear picture of which projects are active and which are dead @QA: Should step up and commit these ebuilds just to get rid of the security bugs which, frankly, don't look that good ( distro wise ). I know technically is not our job, but we need to step up here and either fix the security bugs since net-proxy can't do that, or mask this package which is a no-go.
