Trying to install the driver for my ethernet card, portage tells me:
QuoteFetch instructions for net-misc/r8168-8.047.01:
* Please download r8168-8.047.01.tar.bz2 from:
* https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/network-interface-controllers-10-100-1000m-gigabit-ethernet-pci-express-software
* using the "GBE Ethernet LINUX driver r8168 for kernel up to 4.15" link.However, that webpage only lets me download r8168-8.047.04.tar.bz2 .
(It would be kind if the message also specified where to download it to --- still being much more familiar with gentoo, I had to hunt a bit.)
(I originally wanted to file that as a bug, but cannot see where to apply for a Jira login. On the way to the forum login, it said somewhere something like “this is the login for all things funtoo”, so I tried it on the bug tracker, but that did not work.)

r8168 ebuild outdated?
