You're using ~amd64 sources, which means they update frequently. I found |
| 23 |
this annoying so I only use the stable sources, even on ~amd64 systems to |
| 24 |
keep updates to a reasonable level while ensuring I don't miss important |
| 25 |
updates. I added this to package.accept_keywords |

sys-kernel/gentoo-sources -~amd64 |

sys-kernel/linux-headers -~amd64 |
