[gentoo-dev] intel (icc,mkl...) packages looking for new maintainer

[Sébastien Fabbro]

the following  intel packages need new maintainers:

dev-cpp/tbb
dev-lang/icc
dev-lang/ifc
dev-lang/idb
sci-libs/mkl
sci-libs/ipp

some of them are listed as me as maintainer, others as sci herd, but i
was mostly the one maintaining them.
they have up-to-date versions in the science overlay.

email me if you are interested (proxy-maintainers also welcome).

Do these up-to-date ebuilds fix the Macrovision bug[1]? Do we even have
a proper workaround for the sandbox violation that doesn't involve
disabling the sandbox?

unfortunately they do not. this bug is indeed quite annoying i have no
easy solution. this is even more annoying for x86* users with
USE=-fortran who might need to pull a fortran compiler to build lapack
as a dependency of a package, and since it depends on virtual/fortran,
dev-lang/ifc will be chosen.
