These packages infuriate me, and quite frankly, I have no need for them
for release building.  Basically, I don't want to maintain them any
more.  I plan on adding a "libkudzu" ebuild, which will fulfill the
dependency for hwsetup, and drop kudzu and kudzu-knoppix from the tree
completely, unless some brave soul steps up to maintain these.  I figure
I'll be removing them around August 1st, so speak up if you want them,
otherwise, they are history.

Why do they infuriate you?

Alright, so it's been a bit later than I thought, as I had to wait until
bug #104149 was resolved.

At any rate, I heard no objections from people, so unless someone else
steps up to maintain kudzu/kudzu-knoppix, I plan on removing them from
the tree on Friday October 21st.  Neither of them work exactly right on
Gentoo and would require some patching to make them functional that I'm
just not willing to do as I have no interest in the packages.  If you
would like to maintain them, then please update metadata.xml and send me
a message saying so.
