+Title: www-servers/vinyl-cache-9.0.0: Varnish Renamed to Vinyl-Cache
+Author: Brett A C Sheffield <[email protected]>
+Posted: 2026-03-29
+Revision: 1
+News-Item-Format: 2.0
+Display-If-Installed: <www-servers/varnish-9.0.0
+
+As of version 9.0.0, www-servers/varnish has been renamed to
+www-servers/vinyl-cache in line with upstream's change of name. The name change
+also affects binaries, directories, init scripts, configuration and the user and
+group used by server daemon.
+
+If you are upgrading from a previous version of www-servers/varnish you will
+need to update your configuration as described below.
+
+All references to varnishd, varnishlog, varnishncsa and varnishadm are replaced
+with their vinyl* equivalents:
+
+ varnishd    -> vinyld
+ varnishlog  -> vinyllog
+ varnishncsa -> vinylncsa
+ varnishadm  -> vinyladm
+
+The following files have been renamed:
+
+ /etc/conf.d/varnishd    -> /etc/conf.d/vinyld
+ /etc/conf.d/varnishlog  -> /etc/conf.d/vinyllog
+ /etc/conf.d/varnishncsa -> /etc/conf.d/vinylncsa
+ /etc/init.d/varnishd    -> /etc/init.d/vinyld
+ /etc/init.d/varnishlog  -> /etc/init.d/vinyllog
+ /etc/init.d/varnishncsa -> /etc/init.d/vinylncsa
+
+In the above files, all VARNISH* options are now VINYL* and you will need to
+update your configuration accordingly.
+
+The configuration directory has been moved:
+ /etc/varnish/ -> /etc/vinyl-cache/
+
+To upgrade from varnish 8.x to 9.x:
+
+0) Take a backup of your existing configuration files
+1) Stop all running varnish services
+2) emerge --oneshot www-servers/vinyl-cache
+3) Update and install your VCL files in /etc/vinyl-cache/
+
+You can now start the new vinlyld, vinyllog and vinylncsa services, remembering
+to add them to the appropriate runlevels as normal.
+
+For more details of the changes, you are encouraged to read:
