From now on, QEMU works fine with PowerKVM. See following message log. So We request unmask qemu on ppc64le platform. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge app-emulation/qemu 2. The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed: (see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more details) # required by qemu (argument) =app-emulation/qemu-2.6.0 ~ppc64 The following mask changes are necessary to proceed: (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details) # required by qemu (argument) # /usr/portage/profiles/arch/powerpc/package.mask: # Doug Goldstein <cardoe@gentoo.org> (11 Jan 2013) # Masked due to depends on bug #438780 =app-emulation/qemu-2.6.0 NOTE: The --autounmask-keep-masks option will prevent emerge from creating package.unmask or ** keyword changes.

the issue originally mentioned still exists -- ipxe is keyworded only on amd64/x86. we need to figure out how to handle it on other arches.
That's true. ipxe is keyworded only on amd64/x86. Seems this was fixed in qemu-2.6.0 ebuild on ppc64le. Thanks
