Actually, it looks like things have changed since I last ran into this |
20 |
problem: It used to be that emerge would refuse a masked ebuild even |
21 |
when specified by filename. It looks like this is no longer the case - |
22 |
meaning that, after all, there is an equivalent, though somewhat less |
23 |
elegant, to a --nomask option. But I couldn't find mention of this in |
24 |
the changelog; shouldn't this be more well-known? It would make for far |
25 |
easier answers to all those "how to unmask such-and-such" posts. |

P.S. I really don't mean to be a curmudgeon; this is merely a pet peeve. |
