knews is currently marked "broken" in package.mask - just a small comment that says "broken". But I can't find any open bug for it and it works fine for me. Emerged it, used it, had no problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. grep knews /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask 2. comment the line out 3. emerge knews, start knews, use it Actual Results: It worked fine Expected Results: Should have been broken :-) Portage 2.0.46-r12 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.1-r2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1500MHz GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror http:/ /www.ibiblio.org/gentoo" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share /config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" USE="x86 oss 3dnow apm avi crypt cups encode gif jpeg gnome libg++ mikmod mmx mp eg ncurses nls pdflib png qtmt quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib gdbm b erkdb slang readline arts tetex bonobo svga java guile mysql X sdl gpm tcpd pam libwww ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gtk qt kde motif opengl mozilla cdr s canner" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O3 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-march=i686 -O3 -pipe" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" MAKEOPTS="-j2" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo-portage" FEATURES="sandbox ccache"
