Well, that's yet another problem, this time it's `autofs` package which depends on glibc having `rpc` USE flag. glibc 2.26 lost this USE-flag, however. Hopefully you can workaround this by enabling `libtirpc` USE-flag for `autofs` package. So the steps should be now: 1. put `net-fs/autofs libtirp

Hi=) Can't really help with 32bit conflicts, I gave up on it since other unofficial packages got broken. But you can try workaround with disabled abi_x86_32, put skype ebuild to your local overlay and remove all abi_x86_32 related in it. And it still can fail=) Or you can give a try to web.skype.co

In this context I believe it's a bit shift operator. So 1 << 0 is 1 and 1 << 1 is 2. As for the << operator in C++... The operator appears in C++ as the bitshift operator too. However, C++ supports operator overloading. This means that for custom data types (I.e. classes), one can define how cert
