the ebuild for apmd-3.0.2-r3 had -ppc in the keywords when it should be just ppc
-- no '-'

umm, the KEYWORDS var in /usr/portage/sys-apps/apmd/apmd-3.0.2-r3.ebuild reads:
KEYWORDS="x86"
so i dunno what you're talking about ;)

besides, according to the apmd homepage:
'apmd talks to the Linux kernel APM layer, which does all the hardware-
dependent stuff'
which means maybe KEYWORDS should read "x86 ppc sparc sparc64" ... of course i 
only have x86 machines so i cant test on the other arch's

-ppc is correct, apmd doesn't run on ppc, you should be using pmud (there is 
now apm emulation in ppc kernel but is only for programs that look in /proc to 
read apm settings)
