Updating masked packages

Hello to all,

I'm trying to update net-im/skype, for which I put the "~amd64" keyword
in package.keywords

Now, I'm facing the following problem:


root ~ # emerge --deep --update --verbose --pretend net-im/skype

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy
">=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-20091231" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
request:
- app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-20091231 (masked by: ~amd64 keyword)

For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "net-im/skype-2.1.0.47-r1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "net-im/skype" [argument])


For the purpose of unmasking emul-linux-x86-xlibs, I put the following
line in package.keywords:

app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs ~amd64


However, this line did not change emerge's behaviour in any way...

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Marko Obrovac

Re: Updating masked packages [In reply to]

shouldn't you add xlibs instead of qtlibs?

Ahhh, I got confused with the long package names! Thanks for the tip
(usually the most obvious solution is the one we don't see)

As it turns out, I have to keyword both of them!

Thnx again

The autounmask utility can be used to unmask all the dependant
packages ...
