Description SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-05-05 05:13:19 UTC
if we put something like:
# this package needs blah blah before we can unmask
KEYWORDS=""

and then someone tries to emerge said version/package, portage should rip out the comments there and display them just like it does with package.mask in profiles
