[gentoo-user] is it safe to unmask sys-auth/policykit

[John covici]

Sorry if this is a duplicate -- II never got it back, so I am sending
it again.

Hi.  I was trying to do an emerge --update --deep --with-bdeps=y world
and got the following error:

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-auth/policykit-0.6" have
    been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
    request:
- sys-auth/policykit-0.6 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword)
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Saleem Abdulrasool <compnerd@g.o> (23 Nov 2007)
# Mask this until we get the input and mounting issues worked out

In view of this comment, should I unmaks it anyway and if not, how can
I get past this one?

Any assistance would be appreciated.
