The hvm flag has an antagonist dependency on net-libs/libiscsi so if you got |
| 52 |
that installed you can't set the hvm flag. I wasn't aware that equery hides the |
| 53 |
flags in that case though. If that's not the problem post the output of: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
USE="-hvm" emerge -va app-emulation/xen-tools |
| 56 |
