Automation like that sounds good. Also, I wonder if we should introduce an arch-independent keyword which would probably make sense for a lot of python packages. Also, I've got this patch from drobbins that allows one architecture to sort of inherit keywords from another architecture: https://github.com/zmedico/portage/compare/master...zmedico:drobbins-track-keywords?expand=1 -- Thanks, Zac
