1 Hi,
2
3 It is probably a dumb blunder of mine, but it seems that there is
4 something weird with glib on my world file.

6 emerge -pv world fails with:

10 !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=dev-libs/glib-2.16" have been masked.
11 !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
12 request:
13 - dev-libs/glib-2.16.3 (masked by: package.mask)
14 /usr/portage/local/layman/desktop-effects/profiles/package.mask:
15 #
16 # <jmbsviceto@g.o> (9 February 2008)
17 # glib-2.15 breaks some packages
18
19 - dev-libs/glib-2.16.2 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword)
20 - dev-libs/glib-2.16.1 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword)
21
22 For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
23 refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
24 (dependency required by "dev-cpp/glibmm-2.16.1" [ebuild])

28 Now, I have a bunch of unmasked stuff in package.keywords, but I've
29 *not* unmasked glibmm ~x86 or other glib related stuff. So why is a x86
30 glibmm pulling down ~x86 stuff/why is an unstable glibmm being pulled
31 down? By what?
32
33 By the way: I find the fact "emerge -pv" just fails in those cases
34 extremly annoying. Shoudn't it report the error, skip offending packages
35 but let me see what can be happily merged independently of that?
