1 I use the /etc/portage/package.* files for unmasking packages.
2
3 Just curious if there were any packages out there to help keep those
4 files organized. Basically, if the package comes out of package.mask,
5 is there an easy way to take it out of those package.* files also.
6
7 Also, if there are packages in those files that are outdated... an easy
8 way to remove them.
9
10 For instance:
11
12 right now i have
13 =mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.5 ~x86
14
15 in my /etc/portage/package.keywords
16
17 When it comes out of ~x86 ... is there a script to just clean those out?
18
19 If not I'll probably make one, but i'd rather not reinvent the wheel.
20
21 Thanks.
