I am getting a "masked by: profile" error when I emerge world. Any idea what this means and whether/how to override it? Here is what emerge throws back at me:
zebedee root # emerge -pvu world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies - !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r2 (masked by: profile) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.11 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r4 (masked by: profile, ~x86 keyword) For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook. !!! (dependency required by "sys-apps/hal-0.4.7-r2" [ebuild]) !!! Problem with ebuild gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-3.2.5 !!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. !!! Depgraph creation failed. Thanks!
