skymoo root # emerge unlzx
Calculating dependencies   

emerge: all ebuilds that could satisfy "unlzx" have been masked.
skymoo root # 


skymoo root # emerge --version
Portage 2.0.33

specifying the complete path to the ebuild ie

emerge /usr/portage/app-sci/unlzx/unlzx-1.1.ebuild

works.

ah, that's an easy one. it's a masked package.  if you look in
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask, you'll see that the reason it is masked is
because of licensing issues.  Likely it is just not clear what the license on it is.

so, if you know it, please let us know it.

I've done a search and all I can find is the following, from aminet

Short:    Unlzx - decompresses LZX archives on multiple platforms
Author:   emeusel@cs.uni-magdeburg.de (Erik Meusel) (v1.1, 03.04.01)
Uploader: emeusel@cs.uni-magdeburg.de (Erik Meusel)
Version:  1.1
Type:     misc/unix
Requires: ANSI C-Compiler
Replaces: misc/unix/unlzx.c.Z

and a website, which appears to be the website for version 1.0

http://www.polycode.dk/mainpages/products/products.html#unlzx

there was some info regarding the PPC compliled version and it mentioned that
the license was freeware

so i would hazard a guess that is freeware?
