If something is a six-liner made by Gentoo and for Gentoo, noone cares enough to create a homepage for it. http://gentoo.org is the most useless 'homepage' value you can use. It doesn't mean anything, and especially you aren't going to find a piece of information on the software on that site. In that case, even https://bugs.gentoo.org is more useful. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
