electric is a CAD program allowing one to design a variety of electric circuits. electric-7.00 is currently not keyworded for amd64 so I have been unmasking the ~x86 ebuild for my 64-bit system. There were no issues when compiling, I have compiled both with and without the qt USE flag. I have been using the program on and off for several months, designing circuits for some university work. I've been creating schematics and layouts, as well as running simulations on those schematics both manually and with simulation scripts. I have also been creating icons and performing a variety of other miscellaneous tasks with electric. I'm yet to encounter any issues with running this program on a 64-bit machine. The ebuild should be keyworded for ~amd64.

I can confirm that the amd64 ebuild works; good to mark ~amd64.
