mythweb-0.21_pre13285 is marked as stable. But in Changelog stands: Adding experimental trunk ebuild. MythTv 0.21 schould not be stable now. Reproducible: Always
The ebuild also fails for many users, as there is nothing to unpack: !!! ERROR: www-apps/mythweb-0.21_pre13285 failed. Call stack: ebuild.sh, line 1614: Called dyn_unpack ebuild.sh, line 751: Called qa_call 'src_unpack' environment, line 3594: Called src_unpack mythweb-0.21_pre13285.ebuild, line 26: Called unpack ebuild.sh, line 389: Called die !!! Nothing passed to the 'unpack' command !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. !!! A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/www-apps/mythweb-0.21_pre13285/temp/build.log'.
It is hard masked. Don't unmask it.

As I showed earlier theres no mention of it in /usr/portage/profile/package.mask; however manually calling in 0.21 gets me this: ======================== hammond ~ # emerge -av =media-tv/mythtv-0.21_pre13285 These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies - !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=media-tv/mythtv-0.21_pre13285" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - media-tv/mythtv-0.21_pre13285 (masked by: package.mask) # Doug Goldstein <cardoe@gentoo.org> (5 Mar 2007) # experimental SVN to quell the masses # complain upstream if something is broken For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. ================= Is there another mask file that the devs are using now that I'm unaware of? I've poked in /usr/portage/profiles/*MYPROFILE* and can't come up with any mask file that contains the above (though there are a few .mask files there).
*** Bug 175510 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
reopening for proper resolution
The package.mask entry was fixed so it's really masked now.
