13 The ~x86 has only been a temporary thing due to some SELinux-patched
14 programs not being stable. Baselayout isn't patched, but its just
15 locked into one specific version, until we resolve a bug with it and
16 device nodes (/dev/*). Once the above packages go stable, we'll remove
17 the ~x86 requirement. After you merge these, you could get away with
18 having a x86 system, but emerge -u [system|world] would complain. One
19 option would be to copy these ebuilds into your portage overlay and
20 change their keywords to x86.
