It's in /usr/portage/profile/amd64/no-multilib/use.mask, I can't figure out how to unmask it on /etc/portage. What I would do is copy the xen-tools ebuild to your local overlay then run: sed -ie '/hvmloader/! s/hvm/hvm2/g' xen-tools-4.5.1-r1.ebuild and enable hvm2 and hvm, that way it doesn't get overwritten when you sync and when the ebuid gets updated and the mask removed you already have the right flags set. > Should I make a bug report about it? > I would comment on bug #351648 because it looks like they fixed it but forgot to remove the mask. -- Fernando Rodriguez
