Description Coleman Kane 2004-04-06 19:45:33 UTC

I found that the golem windowmanager (x11-wm/golem) is masked off on the PPC platform. I own an apple Xserve (PPC 7450) and it built fine by 'emerge golem-0.0.5-r1.ebuild). I think that it should be tagged for ~PPC.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run 'emerge golem', the port refuses to build.
2. cd /usr/portage/x11-wm/golem
3. emerge golem-0.0.5-r1.ebuild, the port builds fine.

Actual Results:  
I am now using the golem window manager on my MacPPC. It is very nice, and now
my favorite window manager. It would be a nice addition to supported software
under ppc.

Expected Results:  
It shpould build after step 1 above.

golem has been added to ppc before... didn't find out by who
