media-video/nvidia-settings is orphan for a long time

Is there any special reason for not getting it maintained by the same
nvidia-drivers maintainers :-/, looks like jlec is helping to get it
bumped but, still, would be better to get it out of maintainer-needed
domain.

Thanks

Re: media-video/nvidia-settings is orphan for a long time [In reply to]

Somebody reworked nvidia-drivers and nvidia-settings ebuilds 2 years
ago and left them in (IMHO) quite debatable state.
See bug #336088.

The ebuild should be cleaned up and either renamed or actually fixed.
"nvidia-settings" doesn't contain the nvidia-settings application,
which is kinda funny.
