As per bug #261288 which I just failed, this mail informs of the pending
removal (in 30 days) of the package in subject, for these reason:

- dodoc failing in the ebuild;
 - builds non-PIC code (TEXTRELs);
 - bundles an internal copy of an ancient library (gdchart) we don't have in
portage.

Since the package is a leaf (nothing depends on it), it has been decided to
just kill it off.
