Hi,

I synced just now.

So yes, the ebuild is there, but

So I must move somewhere. Portage suggested downgrade, because I 
keyworded nvidia-kernel by version.
Anyway, I keyworded 1.0.8756. I will see what will happen.
But I don't see the reasons, why emerge doesn't see 1.0.8178-r3.

2 minutes later:
Sorry, I realized just now, that it is hardmasked. So the question has 
changed. How can I figure out why it was hardmasked? 
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask doesn't contain it.

TIA.
