This will leave acct-{user,group}/slurm without reverse dependencies.
Last-rite them, too?

Oh! That's a pity! I need that package...

Is there anything I can do to keep using slurm with my gentoo box?

Is there any chance you'd be willing to adopt it?

That would be great! Thank you for the link.

It's my first time, so what comes next? Should I try to fix the bugs?

Exactly! Ideally do a GitHub PR adopting the package and fixing bugs in the process (it's
ok not to fix them all at once, just do a bump if one exists, and try to start fixing them).

I just added an updated ebuild in my junkdrawer overlay. I would be
willing to proxy maintain the package in gentoo.

Hi,

I think it makes sense. I still have no experience proxy maintaining and
if you do...

Still, I'll have a look at some of the open bugs during the next week,
hopefully.
