Description Alexei Colin 2020-06-11 01:02:22 UTC
Portage understands package.accept_keywords and package.keywords files in profiles. These turned out to be very useful for creating maximally self-contained profiles (that encapsulate all system configuration for an application).

However, these files are not documented in the Profiles section of the PMS, so having read only the PMS, I incorrectly concluded that exactly what I wanted (define package.accept_keywords in the profile rather than in the system-wide /etc) was not possible.

If this is a Portage-ism that will not be added to EAPI, please disregard this report. Otherwise, patch with blurbs for these files is attached.



Reproducible: Always

Sorry, but these files are Portage specific. PMS doesn't even define the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable.

Closing.
