On a related matter, maybe it would be a good idea to change the text in |
2 |
make.conf about ACCEPT_KEYWORDS. |

# Advanced Masking |
5 |
# ================ |
6 |
# |
7 |
# Gentoo is using a new masking system to allow for easier stability testing |
8 |
# on packages. KEYWORDS are used in ebuilds to mask and unmask packages |
9 |
based |
10 |
# on the platform they are set for. A special form has been added that |
11 |
# indicates packages and revisions that are expected to work, but have |
12 |
not yet |
13 |
# been approved for the stable set. '~arch' is a superset of 'arch' which |
14 |
# includes the unstable, in testing, packages. Users of the 'x86' |
15 |
architecture |
16 |
# would add '~x86' to ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to enable unstable/testing packages. |
17 |
# '~ppc', '~sparc' are the unstable KEYWORDS for their respective platforms. |
18 |
# |
19 |
# Please note that this is not for development, alpha, beta, nor cvs release |
20 |
# packages. "Broken" packages will not be added to testing and should not be |
21 |
# requested to be added. Alternative routes are available to developers |
22 |
# for experimental packages, and it is at their discretion to use them. |
23 |
# |
24 |
# DO NOT PUT ANYTHING BUT YOUR SPECIFIC ~ARCHITECTURE IN THE LIST. |
25 |
# IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF YOUR ARCH, OR THE IMPLICATIONS, DO NOT MODIFY THIS. |
26 |
# |
27 |
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86"[/code] |

|

Maybe adding something like: |
30 |
|
31 |
# Using this may let your system unstable, use it at your own risk. If |
32 |
you only want to test a few packages, consider including them in |
33 |
package.keywords instead. |
