When keywording app-arch/hardlink++ in /etc/portage/package.use to ~x86, it can be emerged without any error at all on amd64. Preliminary testing of hardlink++ on an ext2 partition and a reiser partition didn't reveal any obvious problems. I suggest keywording the ebuild as ~amd64 to allow further testing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. keyword app-arch/hardlink++ in /etc/portage/package.use as ~x86 2. emerge hardlink++ 3. hardlink++ /directory1 /directory2 Actual Results: It just works! Expected Results: It did what it was supposed to do.

dup of bug 109506
(In reply to comment #1) I really don't understand how the duplicate occured! I didn't do it. Honest! This must have been a browser bug (Firefox).
it is already ~amd64
