sysfsutils does work on ppc64.
I've modified the ebuild (sysfsutils-1.2.0.ebuild) in sys-fs/sysfsutils to include the "~ppc64" in "KEYWORDS" variable and the package emerged fine.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. include "~ppc64" in variable "KEYWORDS" in sysfsutils-1.2.0.ebuild
2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~ppc64" emerge sysfsutils
3.
Actual Results:
the emerge works fine
