If it was removed from portage might it be in sunset?

According to [1] hylafax+ never made it into the Gentoo main tree. So I
suppose you refer to the recently removed net-misc/hylafax? You can
resurrect ebuilds of the latter from [2]. Good luck!

If you end up maintaining hylafax in an overlay of yours, please get in
touch with overlays [at] g so we can add that overlay to the layman registry.

Best,

Sebastian
