Need to install libreoffice (welcome to Tax Time!). 

Building either libreoffice or libreoffice-bin failes with
the same error downloading lpsolve from an
apparently non-exitant "dev.gentooexperimental.org".

Disabling lpsolve or switching to coinmp, or disabling both, don't
avoid the issue: lpsolve seems both required and unavailable. 

Q: Any known workaround?

Thanks

(1) Current status of libreoffice

    *  app-office/libreoffice
          Latest version available: 7.2.5.2
          Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ]
          Size of files: 367,553 KiB

(2) libreoffice use flags should be ignoring lpsolve, I think?

    lpsolver is turned off and I've picked coinmp in any case.
    turning off coinmp gets the same result: failure downloading
    lpsolve (see #3, below).

    From /etc/portage/pacakge.use/local (whitespace added):

(3) "dev.gentooexperimental.org" seems not to exist?

    Which seems to make sense:

        "packages.gentooexperimental.org",

    resolves in DNS and firefox but 

        "dev.gentooexperimental.org"

    does not. I've wandered around the site.. infinte
    construction doesn't seem to include "dev." or 
    anything like lpsolve. 

    Checking  packages.../repoman-checks/sci-mathematics.txt gives me
    a not-so-good feeling about lpsolve due to "deprecated":

    repo.eapi.deprecated sci-mathematics/lpsolve/lpsolve-5.5.2.0.ebuild: 4
