[gentoo-user] hello

[John Newman]

I have what is probably a stupid question.  I run an amd64 gentoo
system.  I find that lots of packages have in their KEYWORDS "amd64~".

Up until now, to remedy this when I want to attempt to use one of these
packages, I simply edit the ebuild, regenerate the digest, and do the
installation.  I feel sure there is an easier way around this - I've
read somewhere of being able to tell the system that I am not worried
about packages that haven't been tested on amd64 (thus the amd64~) -
does anyone know what file I need to edit and in what way to make this
work so I don't have to go through the hassle described above of editing
the ebuild, regenerating the digest and then installing the package?

thank you so much
