Hi all,

I'm masking both these packages with their respective maintainers' approval.

omni is a printer driver framework that saw it's last release a little 
over *4* years ago. Since it uses the old gtkmm 1, it's getting the boot.

As for fluxbg, it's a tiny app to change to X root window background. 
However it uses the old, broken and unmaintained gtkmm 2.2, so it's 
getting the boot as well. There are numerous replacements available in 
portage.

30 days from now, those packages will be gone unless someone speaks up.

See bugs https://bugs.gentoo.org/228471 and https://bugs.gentoo.org/244543

Happy holidays to all :)

Rémi
