Drop stable keywords for certain arches and/or remove their keywords |
| 23 |
from X packages. The idea is to keep only a single and smaller portage |
| 24 |
tree which would be much more easier to manage. Pretty much the same |
| 25 |
situation as MIPS. It worked pretty well on MIPS, so it will work on |
| 26 |
these arches too |
