Masked: This package is masked.

Reason: MkDocs 1.x are no longer maintained upstream. MkDocs 2.x, while not yet released, are not backwards compatible and have made some questionable design choices, such as removing plugin support. MkDocs 1.x have been then forked into ProperDocs, which are not a drop-in replacment. Also, Zensical started being independently developed. Over all this time, MkDocs have been barely used in ::gentoo, and the work invested in keeping the whole stack working, along with all the plugins and NIH dependencies, greatly exceeded the benefit. It does not help that most of this is developed with the assumption that docs will be built straight from the git repository. Removal on 2026-04-18. Bug #971358.
