9 This is the wrong place to add it, and the wrong package.

11 If Portage (still) needs it for whatever, then it should be a dependency
12 of Portage.

14 However, app-crypt/openpgp-keys-gentoo-release should be entirely

16 programs as root' logic of gkeys. If there's anything in Portage left
17 not using it, it should be ported.
