Doesn't it also still check keywording, at least on newer portage (I |
| 12 |
guess it was hard-masking that it didn't used to check for binpkgs, I'm |
| 13 |
not sure about keywording)? Of course it is possible to deliberately |
| 14 |
confound the keywording check by setting an incorrect ACCEPT_KEYWORDS |
| 15 |
globally or using package.keywords to do so by package. |
