I remember that the problem is that the distfiles can't be downloaded: "Upstream deleted all files more than 6 years ago and is inactive. See also bug #628960 Masked for removal on 2018-02-01" (For the future: "eix linux-gazette -v -l" will show you the mask message, alternatively "grep -r linux-gazette /usr/portage/profiles/" will show you which file the mask is defined in.) Point is, unmasking won't make the ebuilds work. I would copy everything the linux-gazette ebuilds install somewhere else and then uninstall them.
