9 Just to let everyone know, this is not the case. Treat it like a normal
10 ebuild and everything will be fine. If your new "real" virtual is already
11 an existing virtual used by stable packages, it will of course need to go
12 stable, but if its brand new, just make sure nothing stable depends on it.

14 Bug #116253 was invalid due to the user's package.keywords.
