Mike is correct here... Adding another arch keyword works, but is |
| 18 |
frowned upon. As the Gentoo/amd64 Lead, I would prefer that individuals |
| 19 |
use only amd64 and ~amd64. Otherwise, applications that are masked for |
| 20 |
amd64 (but not x86) will never be reported to bugs.g.o as successful |
| 21 |
installs. If a package isn't reported, then we won't know to unmask it |
| 22 |
for those who use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS correctly. |

The scenario Meir mentions is basically the lazy-man's way out of |
| 25 |
updating and maintaining a useful portage for the Gentoo/amd64 community. |

You get Gentoo for free. The least you can do is contribute something |
| 28 |
back to the community, even something as simple as "keyword bugs"... |
