The Gentoo/HPPA team no longer thinks that the time invested in |
| 9 |
package stabilization is warranted for the small number of users on |
| 10 |
HPPA. As a result, we will drop most "hppa" keywords to "~hppa" on |
| 11 |
2020-12-31. Around 850 packages will retain their stable keywords. |

Users need not make any changes to their systems—other than perhaps |
| 14 |
adding some entries to their package.accept_keywords file. The |
| 15 |
Gentoo/HPPA team has no plans to remove support for the architecture. |

Here's the GitHub PR I've made for stable masking a bunch of flags and |
