Missing package sys-apps/iucode_tool

[kris]

Hello

While installing the system, I came across the missing sys-apps / iucode_tool package

 

emerge intel-microcode iucode_tool
Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "iucode_tool".

emerge: searching for similar names...
emerge: Maybe you meant any of these: media-sound/cdtool, media-sound/id3tool, sys-fs/udftools?

I would ask that you open bugs for any missing packages that were in nokit but are now missing in next-release. We are trying to get rid of nokit and move anything we want to maintain to the other kits. This is part of our "beard trimming" initiative.

In your "C compiler is not working" thread you had switched to "next" release on an existing system.

 @drobbins  currently has "nokit" excluded from "next" release 

rj@funtoo ~ $ ego query v iucode_tool
 sys-apps/iucode_tool| slot|              repo
---------------------+-----+------------------
                2.1.1|    0| nokit/1.4-release
                2.1.2|     | nokit/1.4-release
                  2.2|     | nokit/1.4-release

If I was in this situation I would configure portage to add "nokit"  as a local overlay.

Thanks @cardinal, I will do it as soon as I deal with the installation of the system
