As the Games team does not have enough manpower to keep tabs on all |
| 12 |
games packages, we have dropped all ebuilds maintained by the games |
| 13 |
project to unstable KEYWORDS (without those required by other stable |
| 14 |
packages). If you have any of these stable games packages installed, |
| 15 |
you will have to add them to /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/ |
| 16 |
manually. Failures related to missing stable KEYWORDS will show up as |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed: |
| 19 |
(see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more |
| 20 |
details) |

# required by @selected |
| 22 |
# required by @world (argument) |

While we accept that this will cause some irritation for the community, |
| 26 |
pretending we have a well supported games collection by having a |
| 27 |
wealth of stable games packages is misleading at best. We welcome |
| 28 |
contributions from outsiders willing to polish up the games landscape |
| 29 |
in Gentoo via the Proxy Maintainers. |
