38 You may want to have a go by adding:
39
40 ~x11-plugins/beryl-plugins-0.1.99.2
41
42 or,
43
44 =x11-plugins/beryl-plugins-0.1.99.2 ~x86 (if you don't want subsequent
45 upgrades to unstable packages)
46
47 to your /etc/portage/package.keywords file and then run:
48
49 # emerge -upDv beryl-plugins
50
51 to see if it is being picked up. You may discover additional masked
52 dependencies at this stage and you will need to unmask them in turn.
