Bug #677486. > dev-util/staruml-bin > =dev-libs/libgcrypt-1.5* I don't care about staruml-bin but libgcrypt is one of those legacy libraries that would be helpful to keep around for older proprietary software that is not in the tree. In particular, it is used by Half-Life 2 and Portal, not exactly obscure games. It is included in the Steam runtime but we highly recommend against using that because it causes many issues. If you want me to maintain this version then I can do that. If it's otherwise causing real issues by being in the tree then I could move it to steam-overlay but I'd rather not. There may be non-Steam use cases. -- James Le Cuirot (chewi) Gentoo Linux Developer
