Description Oli Scheit 2004-10-11 13:54:40 UTC
I'm running the win4lin-sources-2.6.7-r5 kernel on my PC.
I wanted to do an emerge world without downgrading to the 2.4 kernel,
so I added
<sys-kernel/win4lin-sources-2.6.0
to my /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask
I know I'm not supposed to do this, but nothing else worked out.

Now I'm getting this:

!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "sys-kernel/win4lin-sources" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- sys-kernel/win4lin-sources-2.6.7-r5 (masked by: -* keyword)
- sys-kernel/win4lin-sources-2.4.26-r6 (masked by: package.mask)
!!!    (dependency required by "app-emulation/win4lin-5.1.1" [ebuild])

!!! Problem with ebuild app-emulation/win4lin-5.1.1
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.

Why is 2.6.7-r5 masked by the -* keyword ??
Shouldn't it be masked by the ~x86 keyword?

kind regards,
Oli

I just found this:

# Best to keep "~x86" until Win4Lin-5.1.10 is in the tree and stable;
# bug #55587.
KEYWORDS="~x86 -*"
SLOT="${KV}"

inside the 2.6.7-r5.ebuild file.

Okay,after reeding bug 55587 I understand why 2.6.7 is ~x86,
but still the message I got should be different, shouldn't it?

By the way,
win4lin 5.1.1 _is_ in the stable tree now! Might want to change this...

Looks normal to me.
