17 See the documentation mentioned above. In this case, both the ebuilds
18 contain KEYWORDS="-* x86". this means they only run on x86 (the -*
19 explicitly excludes everything else). You mentioned in your other post
20 that you are using amd64, it appear this package will not run on amd64.
21
22 If it was simply a case of not being tested on amd64, the KEYWORDS would
23 be set to "x86" leaving amd64 compatibility indeterminate, but the -*
24 means "forget running this on anything else".
