-* are masked for all archs. This is experimental beyond ~*. Furthermore, |
| 13 |
you should at least specify your particular arch, like x86, amd64, ppc. |

Many applications don't even use a -* arch so you will be missing a whole |
| 15 |
bunch of stuff. |

A better way to handle this is to use the package.keywords file and add to |
| 18 |
it any experimental ebuilds you want. |
