57 Hey!
58
59 There is one interesting part in the output of emerge
60 >> x11-plugins/beryl-plugins-0.1.99.2 (masked by: missing keyword)
61 This means that the package hasn't been tested yet.
62 So you need to replace the following in package.keywords
63 x11-plugins/beryl-plugins
64 by
65 x11-plugins/beryl-plugins ~x86
66
67 If you are using another architecture than x86 (like amd64) you need to
68 write ~amd64 instead
69
70 Cheers,
71 Jay
