+# Ancient asynchronous DNS library.  The current Gentoo version is
+# from 2006, and lacks support for IPv6, NSS, /etc/hosts.  There were
+# some new upstream activity in 2014-2016 but there is probably
+# no reason to bump it, now that it has no reverse dependencies anymore.
+# It had no Gentoo maintainer since 2004, when metadata.xml was added.
+# A good alternative is net-dns/c-ares.
+# Removal in 30 days.  Bug #513238.
