Let's have a look at the ebuild: |

The ebuild depends on dev-lang/perl-5.10.1 or perl-core/Test-Harness-3.17. |
| 32 |
The second one is in the tree so there is no need for hardmasking. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
So if you add virtual/perl-Test-Harness to package.keywords you should |
| 35 |
also add perl-core/Test-Harness. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
If you wonder why portage doesn't report both possibilities, visit the |
| 38 |
bugs in my other mail in this thread. |
