1 Hello,
2
3 Jffnms is masked. However I am able to install it on an intel portable
4 by adding this line to the /etc/portage/package.keywords
5 net-analyzer/jffnms ~x86
6
7 This is pretty must standard approach.

9 However, on a gentoo system that I manually hacked a jffnms installation
10 on on a very early (experimental) ebuild does not even show jffnms
11 as a masked package. It intalled configuration file is /etc/jffnms, but
12 I delete that dir and contents. Still I cannot install the jffnms
13 masked package on this one system. Everyother system can install jffnms
14 with the aforementioned line added to package.keywords.
15
16 Any ideas how to track this down? Should I just copy over the ebuild manually
17 to /usr/portage/distfiles ?
18
19 Ideas?
