Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
how can I unmask a use flag masked in profiles/base/package.use.mask? If I set the flag for the package in / |
4 |
etc/portage/package.use it is simply ignored. |
5 |
|
6 |
Concrete example: My /etc/portage/package.use contains the line: |
7 |
|
8 |
dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin:9 doc gentoo-vm source |
9 |
|
10 |
However the flag 'gentoo-vm' is always ignored because it is masked in profiles/base/package.use.mask with |
11 |
the line: |
12 |
|
13 |
dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin:9 gentoo-vm |
14 |
|
15 |
What's the proper procedure to unmask the flag locally? |

(Yes, I know it is experimental and yes I know what I am doing with it. I already use eselect for older EA builds |
18 |
of Java 9 with 1.9 slot and new EA builds of Java 10 - just not the "official" Java 9 from the tree.) |
