You can keep a copy of the ebuild so even if it's removed from portage
you will be able to install it.
Even without a copy, you will be able to retrieve it from git history.
So I want to make a binary of the current dev-lang/php-7.4.33-r2 just
in case in the near future they will pull out the old version out of
the portage.
Will making binary allow me to install dev-lang/php-7.4.33-r2
(binary) with future upgrades (after PHP-7.4 is gone from the
portage)?
