when a package is masked against a relative arch it would have the relevant |
2 |
arch (for example amd64).... the two asteriks serves when a package is not |
3 |
masked against an arch and even if it's in the stable branch it won't |
4 |
install unless you'll unmask it with the two asteriks.... another example of |
5 |
such a package is the knetworkmanager package from xeffects overlay: it has |
6 |
no arch in the ebuild so it is masked by default.... to build it you have to |
7 |
unmask it with the two asteriks in the package.keywords file.... |
