[gentoo-user] Disappearing ebuilds

2006-05-24 Thread Matthias Bethke
Here's what I've been getting on the last few emerges:
| huxley ~ # emerge -DNvuta world
| 
| These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order:
| 
| Calculating world dependencies
| !!! Packages for the following atoms are either all
| !!! masked or don't exist:
| app-crypt/gpg-agent media-gfx/sodipodi app-emulation/winesetuptk
| net-misc/xfsamba
| 
|  ...done!
These just seem to be masked. It happeded before, and sometimes there
was a message in the Changelog, but usually there's none. On another
machine, sys-apps/fileutils just disappeared. Do I have to follow
gentoo-dev to catch when/why things like this will happen and possibly
what other packages stuff is being moved to, or is there a comprehensive
log where this is recorded?

cheers!
Matthias

$PORTDIR/profile/package.mask. Every masked package should have a
comment giving the reason.
