Hi,

This is just a minor issue which i noticed today:

# emerge -pv --onlydeps eternal-lands

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 0.47 s (backtrack: 0/20).


!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "eternal-lands" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- games-rpg/eternal-lands-1.9.5.8::gentoo (masked by: eternal_lands license(s))
A copy of the 'eternal_lands' license is located at '/var/db/repos/gentoo/licenses/eternal_lands'.


Technically, since i'm only want to install the dependencies, emerge shouldn't force me to add the license to the license unmask.
