I was looking for a program to replace my previous x terminal locker, and alock caught my eye. The ebuild is keyworded to only ~ppc, but I figured that it was worth at least a test, and it works perfectly fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -pv alock Actual Results: # emerge -pv alock These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies \ !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "alock" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - x11-misc/alock-60 (masked by: missing keyword) For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. The following procedure is a work around. 1. echo "x11-utils/alock ~ppc" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords 2. sudo emerge alock 3. alock -cursor glyph -bg blank -auth none
Created attachment 117116 [details, diff] Patch that adds ~x86 to the keywords for alock
Keyword added. Michael, the ebuild should also install the manpage - it is included in the tarball.
