Right; that is what I thought I said. Oh now I see I wrote *UNstable*. |
| 14 |
I thought that was a synonym for masked. Will purge that term from my |
| 15 |
gentoo vocabulary. |

That was listed in the voluminous emerge output. Here is the relevant |
| 31 |
portion. It starts with xdg-utils (required by lots) and then a |
| 32 |
bunch of perl. |

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed: |
