+Since virtual packages do not install any files, they do not follow the regular |
| 27 |
+arch testing procedure. Instead, the developer can immediately set |
| 28 |
+the <c>KEYWORDS</c> of a virtual to the union of <c>KEYWORDS</c> of its |
| 29 |
+providers. In particular, if a new virtual is created for a stable package, |
| 30 |
+the virtual is committed straight to stable. |
| 31 |
+</p> |
| 32 |
+ |
| 33 |
+<p> |
| 34 |
+For example, if you have two packages: <c>dev-libs/liblinux</c> with |
| 35 |
+<c>KEYWORDS="amd64 ~x86"</c> and <c>dev-libs/libbsd</c> with |
| 36 |
+<c>KEYWORDS="~amd64-fbsd ~x86-fbsd"</c>, the resulting virtual will |
| 37 |
+have: |
| 38 |
+</p> |
| 39 |

| 40 |
+<codesample lang="ebuild"> |
| 41 |
+KEYWORDS="amd64 ~x86 ~amd64-fbsd ~x86-fbsd" |
| 42 |
+ |
| 43 |
+RDEPEND="|| ( dev-libs/liblinux dev-libs/libbsd )" |
