However the 2.6.x branch of Darktable has not +seen any activity since October 2019 and we have just confirmed with upstream +that all but the latest release branch (3.4.x at the time of writing this) are +not supported. + +In light of the above we have decided to remove media-gfx/darktable-2.6.2 from +the tree, thus dropping x86 support from that package, by 2021-06-15. +
