Just do an emerge with "emerge xvidtune" and it will tell you that the package can't be merged. Yes, I've edited the package.keywords- and package.unmask-files. package.keywords looks like this: x11-apps/xvidtune -* ~amd64 and package.unmask is filled with: x11-apps/xvidtune But it doesn't work! Also using the unmask-function of Kuroo didn't work. - It just keeps telling me "masked by: missing keyword".. :( Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a console window like xterm 2. Type in: emerge xvidtune 3a. Edit package.keywords and package.unmask by adding "x11-apps/xvidtune" (without the "") OR 3b. Click the "Unmask"-button inside Kuroo. Actual Results: The "xvidtune"-package can't be merged. Expected Results: Emerge should recognize the changes and merge the package correctly.

Please, read 'man ekeyword' and 'man ebuild' before filing pointless bugs. "x11-apps/xvidtune -* ~amd64" in package.keywords can't work because x11-apps/xvidtune has none of them.
I'm sorry, but IMHO it's not senseless, because at forums.gentoo.org I've read that "-* ~amd64" would help. If that's false, I'm very sorry for the trouble I've made.. Anyway, I'd like to know how to get this fixed, so that I can install xvidtune.
