Hmmm, it seems the x11 overlay is missing a whole bunch of stuff as it |
| 12 |
complains: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
alculating dependencies... done! |
| 15 |

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=x11-proto/xineramaproto-1.1.3" |
| 17 |
have been masked. |
| 18 |
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: |
| 19 |
- x11-proto/xineramaproto-9999 (masked by: package.mask, ~amd64 keyword) |
| 20 |
/usr/portage/local/layman/x11/profiles/package.mask: |
| 21 |
# Don't let people install these accidentally |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge |
| 25 |
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. |
| 26 |
(dependency required by "x11-base/xorg-server-9999" [ebuild]) |
| 27 |
(dependency required by "world" [argument]) |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
danny ~ # less /usr/portage/local/layman/x11/x11-proto/xineramaproto/ |
| 30 |
Manifest xineramaproto-9999.ebuild |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Which hits the overlays own masks. It looks like I'll have to go back |
| 33 |
to my own hand crafted overlay but with the package.mask overided as |
| 34 |
you suggested. |
