Hello. I update portage version to 2.1.1_pre5-r1 i get strange errors. All ebuild that have mmx, 3dnow, sse, sse2 and other flags now in emerge -pv says "(-mmx)". For example: emerge -pv imlib2 These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild N ] media-libs/libid3tag-0.15.1b USE="-debug" 0 kB [ebuild N ] media-libs/imlib2-1.2.2.001 USE="X bzip2 gif jpeg mp3 nls png tiff zlib -doc (-mmx)" 922 kB But i have mmx flag in USE at /etc/make.conf. I tryed to add (mmx) useflag but they don't work - still see (-mmx) . What this mean?
Oh sorry. I mean it says not only (-mmx) but also (-3dnow) (-sse) etc.
(In reply to comment #0) > they don't work - still see (-mmx) . What this mean? use.masked use flag. We need to see emerge --info to check whether it's masked correctly or not, but it's not a portage bug.

(In reply to comment #3) > But before update all was ok It's not any error, it simply tells you that the flag is masked on a particular profile. It used to be displayed so in portage-2.0.x and now it's that way again. No bug here, it's masked intentionally on amd64 (and hard-enabled in cases when it works).
This mean that i cannot use mmx, sse and other flags on amd64?
(In reply to comment #5) > This mean that i cannot use mmx, sse and other flags on amd64? They're masked by use.mask, and probably for a good readson. It's possible to override use.mask in to profile via /etc/portage/profile/use.mask. It's documented in `man portage`.
In /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/use.mask, /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/use.mask, and /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2006.0/use.mask (all use.mask that used by my profile) i cannot see any mmx, 3dnow or other flags. But i find in /usr/portage/profiles/base/use.mask: # amd64/x86 arch specific USE flags 3dnow 3dnowext icc icc-pgo ifc mmx mmxext sse sse2 svga but amd64 profile really use this file?
