Thanks.

I removed the ~ppc64 keyword for the version bump in thinking that that was the policy for keywords you don't test yourself. Apologies if I have that wrong.

Live and learn! You drop it if you *have* to (e.g. new dependencies which are not keyworded there, crazy new asm got added upstream and you're worried it won't work, ...), but in that case, you gotta file a bug to get it reinstated.

On regular bumps, leave the keywords intact but reset to ~ (not stable).

See https://devmanual.gentoo.org/keywording/index.html, but don't worry, it's not a big deal and happens a lot. And now you know! :)
