25 Except the next time you want to "emerge -Duv world", it will want to
26 downgrade. Assuming you don't want a full ~x86 version, do:
27
28 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -p kde-meta
29
30 This will give a list of all packages to add to
31 /etc/portage/package.keywords. You can even automate this with:
32
33 for x in `ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -p kde-meta | awk '{ print $4
34 }' | grep "/"`
35 do
36 echo "$x ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
37 done
