app-office/openerp 7.0 and 8.0 depend on dev-python/pyyaml dev-python/python-ldap dev-python/zsi dev-python/gdata dev-python/python-openid Their current stable version are incompatible with the use of ${PYTHON_USEDEP}. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Try to emerge app-office/openerp version 7.0 (or 8.0) Actual Results: The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed: (see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more details) # required by app-office/openerp-7.0.20140125 # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) =dev-python/pyyaml-3.10-r1 ~amd64 # required by app-office/openerp-7.0.20140125[ldap] # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) =dev-python/python-ldap-2.4.14 ~amd64 # required by app-office/openerp-7.0.20140125 # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) =dev-python/gdata-2.0.18 ~amd64 # required by app-office/openerp-7.0.20140125 # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) =dev-python/zsi-2.1_alpha1-r1 ~amd64 # required by app-office/openerp-7.0.20140125 # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) =dev-python/python-openid-2.2.5-r1 ~amd64 Expected Results: Install cleanly with current stable version of those packages. I see two possible solutions: 1. Wait for newer versions of the packages that are compatible with ${PYTHON_USEDEP} stabilize. Mark this bug as won't fix. 2. Change the openerp 7.0 and 8.0 ebuilds to remove the use of ${PYTHON_USEDEP} for those packages (until newer versions compatible with ${PYTHON_USEDEP} stabilize). I can provide patches if necessary. Maybe a better approach would be to report one bug for each of those packages to request the change of the current stable version to make them compatible with the use of ${PYTHON_USEDEP}. Let me know and I'll do it.
It's a package with no stable keywords that depends on other packages that have no (adequate) stable keywords. This is not a problem that is going to be solved, but you can work around it by running `emerge --autounmask=y app-office/openerp' which should automatically unmask the required atoms in your local profile.
