42 You are both right. I tried installing a later version on the blockers
43 but not the packages that depended on them. So, I added the following
44 to my package.keyword and package.unmask files:
45
46 =app-portage/eix-0.18.3
47 =app-arch/libarchive-2.7.1
48
49 Portage is now happy. Every time I think I have figured out portage and
50 these blocker messages, I get thrown a curve ball. lol
51
52 Thanks much for catching that curve ball.
