# David Seifert <soap@gentoo.org> (2024-01-18)
# Unmaintained set of packages. Overall, TensorFlow is ill-suited for
# distro packaging, since it's entangled with tons of googleware and
# continually breaks on minor dependency updates coupled with a
# byzantine build system. These 5 packages together have a total of
# 54 bugs reported against them, with zero activity from the maintainer.
#
# Unmasking this requires a sign-off from QA and treecleaners, since
# these packages require a ton of mental bandwidth to keep up to date
# and Google's general unwillingness to take community input quickly
# leads to maintainer burnout.
# Use sci-libs/pytorch as a modern alternative with better packaging.
# Removal on 2024-02-17. Bug #922374
