+# Slop package.  The old versions bundle a very old fork of
+# app-i18n/uchardet.  The new ones require app-i18n/uchardet from git
+# that suffers from regressions (and upstream slop-patched them anyway).
+# The only revdep supports fallback to dev-python/chardet and
+# dev-python/charset-normalizer (both are also slop nowadays, but we're
+# stuck with them anyway), and uses a || dep.
+# Removal on 2026-09-03.  Bug #980354.
