The message does not in fact state this. % grep gentium-basic MOVED x11-fonts/google-fonts||2025-12-04|Has expired: Depends on expired x11-fonts/gentium-basic x11-fonts/gentium-basic||2025-12-04|Has expired: Superceeded by Gentium-7.000 https://software.sil.org/gentium/download/ If you wanted to tell people to switch to x11-fonts/gentium, you should have put it in the second column of the x11-fonts/gentium-basic entry, and x11-fonts/google-fonts should have been updated instead of deleted.
