I believe it's time to lastrite teamspeak* because they link against 
mysql libraries with SONAME we don't ship anymore

Therefore rendering the packages useless

I'm not sure if it's possible to fix them because symlinking the old 
SONAME to new one doesn't do the trick.


Rebuilding is not an option because they are binary-only.

Unless someone grabs a HEX editor or something and edits the binaries 
directly ... good luck with that

if that's just a soname problem an not an actual abi problem (heh,
soname may have changed for a reason), then dev-java/diablo-jdk has
been doing this for years and you can probably use the same kind of
code.

 Hello
 
 From time to time I see old bug reports that are still wrongly opened
 and referring to old packages no longer in the tree. Would be possible
 to add a way to periodically check for bugs referring in summary to
 obsolete packages and, then, allow us to have a cleaner bug list?

-1, you really cant automate this.

- for eg, keyword req, the version doesnt really matter and is usually
  just there to help but should really be read as latest version;
  closing/ignoring the bug while the latest version still lacks the
  keywords is just wrong.
- for stablereq, that's a different story

- for other bugs, some may have been fixed independently upstream, but
  usually, they dont fix by themselves, so if a bug didnt get
  attention, chances are its still valid.


moreover, doing this, you'll just encourage people not to fill the
version


IOW: If you want a cleaner bug list, ignore stable/kw reqs, then pay
attention to your bugs and fix them :)

It's not for versions, only package names (there are still bugs
referring to already removed packages for months)
