Description Chris Sawczuk 2010-09-24 21:10:48 UTC

Having a package.keywords file the size of a short bible, I was just wondering whether someone would be able to make emerge check for package(.*).keywords

So for example, you could have "package.kde4.keywords".

Added bonus is, when unstable packages come out in bundles, people can just host their own .keyword files for people to just place in /etc/portage - fun for all! 


Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Just a package.keywords file is checked :( and it's huge now. 


N/A

Yes, you can create a /etc/portage/package.keywords/ directory and put there multiple keywords files :)
