 Hi,

 There's no tracker bug or anything alike about the status of unmasking, so I 
 wanted to ask what's the status here.

Hanno also opened a bug and I've responded there:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=252257

 Beside, I'd like to repeat that I think it's a very bad idea to add new 
 packages to package.mask for testing without any further information. 
 Usually a tracker bug is a good idea, but any other note where to find 
 information what needs to be done to get things ready is fine.

Agreed. This was an old mask from before the recent discussion about
this. I've updated the package.mask information accordingly.

Kind regards,

Hans
