Description Massimo Burcheri 2013-01-11 08:09:25 UTC

According to docs this command to add ~arch keyword should work like this:

$ flaggie "xfce-extra/xfce4-embed-plugin" '+~amd64'

This does add the package but not the keyword leaving an invalid /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/xall here.

However adding arch keyword like this works fine:

$ flaggie "xfce-extra/xfce4-embed-plugin" '+amd64'

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Massimo Burcheri 2013-01-11 09:42:42 UTC

Sry, I just found in man portage:
 Format:
    - lines without any KEYWORDS imply unstable host arch

So this may be intended behaviour of flaggie, if so please set to INVALID.

Indeed, a line missing keyword syntax accepts unstable packages.
