10 *** emerging by path is broken and may not always work!!!
11 Calculating dependencies -
12 *** You are emerging a masked package. It is MUCH better to use
13 *** /etc/portage/package.* to accomplish this. See portage(5) man
14 *** page for details.

20 !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "baselayout-lite-1.0_pre1.ebuild" have
21 been masked.
22 !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
23 request:
24 - sys-apps/baselayout-lite-1.0_pre1 (masked by: missing keyword)
25 For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
26 refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
27 Now based on the mailing list and man pages I try to fix it but nothing seem
28 to work.

30 1. I checked that the package is not masked in
31 /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask
32 2. /etc/portage/package.keywords/ is a directory and not a file like
33 everybody else is seeing.
34 3. The KEYWORDS in /usr/portage/sys-apps/baselayout-lite/baselayout-
35 lite-1.0_pre1.ebuild is ""
36
37 Please help me with this.
