Lately more and more packages that I use regularly are being deprecated and flagged for removal during upgrades. I use Sabayon for laptop for Enterprise Red Hat-based consulting. Some of my customers require app-admin/389-ds-console and net-misc/icaclient, which I often use daily without issue.
Is there documentation somewhere or audit trail of why packages are removed from entropy? I always like to purge and cleanup during upgrades, but I'm hesitant to lately with critical packages in the fold.
Note that as of this writing, 389-ds-console appears in latest portage sync but ica-client does not.
