All ebuilds that could satisfy "media-plugins/npapi-vlc" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - media-plugins/npapi-vlc-9999 (masked by: missing keyword) For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

Everything is working correctly. There's only a live ebuild there so it's got no keywords.
If you want to use a live ebuild you generally will need to: echo "app-cat/pkg **" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords echo "app-cat/pkg" >> /etc/portage/package.mask Switch your keyword from ~amd64 to ** and unmask it and you should be good to go. Closing this. If that doesn't fix your problem, feel free to reopen it. Thanks!
Yes, it works. Thank you. Sorry for the noise.
