And *why* does an overlay mask things from the *main* portage tree? Is this normal?

Because masking is global, the sum of all the package.mask files is
applied to the system as a whole.

Yes, I know.
What I wondered, is if this is normal policy. It seems that an overlay messing with main portage tree is just asking for trouble.

But again, I'll ask to the overlay guys.

Thanks a lot as usual,
