What will it do when a package that won't emerge due to masking when you have ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" set in /etc/make.conf and you comment out the entries in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask about it?
I want to install xvidtune but it is masked along with dozens of dependancies for this reason: # Donnie Berkholz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (07 Aug 2005) # Modularized X, upstream release candidates It starts like this: Calculating dependencies !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "xvidtune" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - x11-apps/xvidtune-1.0.1 (masked by: package.mask) But as I comment out the entries there are always more that turn up when I run emerge xvidtune again. I've commented about 8 so far.... but haven't done any real installing just seeing where this goes and need some coaching from someone who better understands what I might be getting into. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
