I just ran emerge --sync twice in order to emerge android-sdk-update-manager, and after each sync emerge --search android reports this: * dev-util/android-sdk-update-manager [ Masked ] Latest version available: 10 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of files: 26,349 kB Homepage: http://developer.android.com Description: Open Handset Alliance's Android SDK License: android The ~amd64 keywords in the online package database seem to indicate at least that at some point the android-sdk-update-manager packages were keyworded for amd64, and yet I can find no information in the /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask file regarding why it ever became (re)masked. I also found no information about this in the (online or local) changelog. Please fix this error or help me figure out why this package is showing up this way on my system. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Browse to: http://packages.gentoo.org/category/dev-util?full_cat and look at the entry for android-sdk-update-manager. 2. Run emerge --search android on a freshly synced system 3. check changelog and package.mask files to try to figure out the reason for the discrepancy. Actual Results: There is a discrepancy for this package in the keyword/masked state between the online package database and the local package database which should not be there given the lack of information in either the changelog or the package.mask file. Expected Results: There should not be a discrepancy, or at the very least there should be info in the changelog and/or package.mask file about this. Please see the accompanying emerge --info and see if it reveals a problem in my configuration. Before today I had not synced for more than 100 days. I'm not sure if that would have anything to do with this. Here is my emerge --info: emerge --info Portage 2.1.9.42 (default/linux/amd64/10.0, gcc-4.4.3, glibc-2.11.2-r0, 2.6.34-gentoo-r6 x86_64)

This package isn't hardmasked. If you look at the ebuild in $(portageq portdir)/dev-util/android-sdk-update-manager/android-sdk-update-manager-10.ebuild or http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-util/android-sdk-update-manager/android-sdk-update-manager-10.ebuild?revision=1.1&view=markup this ebuild has ~amd64 keywords, which means it's on the testing tree and hasn't been added to the stable tree yet. Please read the Gentoo Handbook[1], in particular the section on "Mixing Software Branches"[2] from the "Working with Portage" chapter. [1] - http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/ [2] - http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?part=3&chap=3
My apologies, I must have had a brain tsunami... That bracketed [masked] tag confused me because I haven't emerged any packages in a long time. Sorry.
