Ok, I actually had put it in: |
| 24 |
${repository}/profiles/prefix/darwin/macos/arch/x86/package.use.mask |
| 25 |
I would be ok to use ${repository}/profiles/package.use.mask but how |
| 26 |
do I restrict the useflag to macos-x86 only? |
| 27 |
The overlay, sage-on-gentoo, is widely available and works for most people |
| 28 |
on regular gentoo, linux prefix and macos prefix. I don't want to do something |
| 29 |
that will affect other arches. |
