nano is listed in profiles/default-darwin/macos/10.3/package.mask with the comment "masked until the save problem in fixed".

this file includes the line app-editors/nano

Expected Results:  
Since the bug has been fixed, nano should not be masked on ppc-macos

I say we keep it in package.mask anyway.
Comment 2 dan 2005-03-10 07:43:09 UTC
Why can't it be taken out of packages.mask and left marked as unstable in the ebuild? Users on the forums have reported that the current nano is working and that the open bug has been fixed. Perhaps unmasking and leaving as unstable would give this version wider testing...
