[gentoo-user] portage usage problems

Hi, I have two tiny problems in using portage. - How can I get a list of all packages for which there is a newer version. emerge --update world doesn't work since it doesn't respect my ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" setting, i.e. it doesn't show new packages if they are "masked" by the "~x86" key

[gentoo-user] kernel compilation

Hi, two questions: 1.) I want to build a kernel, which is nearly monolithic. Everything, which can be build inside of kernel is built inside of kernel. But I also need some external modules (lirc). Do I have to run make modules_install if I do not build any modules but use external modules like

Hello Helmut, maybe that www-client/epiphany is a dependency after a package update (e.g. version 1.0 of package X requires package y, but version 0.9 of X does not). Another reason can be the USE-flags. May when you have been building a packge you temporarily disabled an USE-flag (USE="-flag-to-d

Hello all, I'm trying to emerge armagetron on my Gentoo (x86 stable). It seems masked (with the ~x86 keyword). I have no problems with unstable packages, but I've got very much unstable packages, thus I don't want to emerge this unstable, too. But there's a "comment" on the masking, a second way:
