I wanted to emerge =alsa-drivers-9999 I tried =media-sound/alsa-driver-9999 -* =media-sound/alsa-driver-9999 * =media-sound/alsa-driver-9999 ~* media-sound/alsa-driver -* media-sound/alsa-driver ~* media-sound/alsa-driver * In /etc/portage/package.keywords, I also added media-sound/alsa-driver to /etc/portage/packages.unmask But no matter what I tried, I still get the message "Error ... masked by: missing keyword". I'm really sick of it and I just copied the whole package to an overlay and added a keyword manually.
(In reply to comment #0) > =media-sound/alsa-driver-9999 -* > media-sound/alsa-driver -* Either of those two should work. Be careful with multiple occurrences of the same atom, because only the last one will be used. Actually, I've changed the relevant code in 2.1.2 so that multiple occurrences or cumulative (that's a very recent change though).
Ah, I got the error. I was a bit too fast in reading and the error was related to "alsa-headers". So, everything is ok with portage ;)

Actually those shouldn't work as they do right now as ideally p.keywords should behave like ACCEPT_KEYWORDS (therefore be incremental), but I guess we still have too many packages abusing -* in the tree to fix that at this time :(
