I just noticed that the sys-firmware category has been added to the
categories file, but no corresponding directory in portage exists yet.

I understand this is a temporary thing, and the only thing that
notices that there is this discrepancy is software I've written (
https://metacpan.org/source/KENTNL/Gentoo-Overlay-1.0.2/lib/Gentoo/Overlay.pm#L135
).

It doesn't warrant the shenanigans of a full bug report,  ( And I have
no idea how one would categories this sort of bug ), just I dislike
the inconsistency of there being a directory listed in the categories
file without also having that directory in existence.

( This bug is really all CVS's fault, the directory is created, but
its empty -> marked as dead )


In short, "Yay, thanks for sys-firmware, I look forward to it not
being an empty category"

Just I would have hoped that this category hadn't been created until
there was something ready to put in it =)
