Hi,

The kernel module found in app-laptop/ibm-acpi has been included in
the vanilla kernel since linux-2.6.10. There has been no releases of
the stand-alone module since March 2005.

Unless somebody has a really good reason as to why we should keep the
external module in portage I will package.mask it in a week from now
and remove it from portage 30 days later.

Regards,
Brix
