1 Hi,
2
3 I want to install asfrecord. It is not installed in a different
4 version right now.
5
6 eix asfrecord gives me this:
7
8
9 * media-video/asfrecorder
10 Available versions: *1.1
11 Homepage: http://sourceforge.net/projects/asfrecorder/
12 Description: ASFRecorder - Download Windows Media Streaming files
13
14
15 emerge -pv media-video/asfrecord gives me
16
17 Calculating dependencies... done!
18 [ebuild N *] media-video/asfrecorder-1.1 369 kB
19
20 Total: 1 packages (1 new), Size of downloads: 369 kB
21
22 The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
23 #required by media-video/asfrecorder (argument)
24 >=media-video/asfrecorder-1.1 **
25
26 man emerge says nothing about [ebuild N *] but about
27
28 [ebuild U *] sys-apps/portage-2.2.0_alpha6 [2.1.9.25]
29 Portage 2.1.9.25 is installed, but if you run the command, then portage will
30 upgrade to version 2.2.0_alpha6. In this case, the * symbol is displayed, in order
31 to indicate that version 2.2.0_alpha6 is masked by missing keyword. This type of
32 masking display is disabled by the --quiet option if the --verbose option is not
33 enabled simultaneously. The following symbols are used to indicate various types
34 of masking:
35
36 Symbol Mask Type
37
38
39 # package.mask
40 * missing keyword
41 ~ unstable keyword
42
43 NOTE: The unstable keyword symbol (~) will not be shown in cases in which the cor‐
44 responding unstable keywords have been accepted globally via ACCEPT_KEYWORDS.
45
46
47 It seems there is a "missing keyword".
48
49 Unfortunately I now know there is a keyword missing. But what keyword?
50 And how can I manage to install that package?
51
52 Thank you very much for any help in advance!
53 Best regards,
54 mcc
