I just ran into an interesting problem. I am using ac-sources on my laptop,
but when I go to update I get:

Calculating world dependencies -
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "virtual/linux-sources" have been masked.
!!!    (dependency required by "media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.8" [ebuild])

!!! Problem with ebuild app-office/koffice-1.2.1-r1
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

/var/cache/edb/virtuals has:

virtual/linux-sources sys-kernel/ac-sources

As I'd expect.

what I can't explain is this: 

oberon ac-sources # emerge -s ac-sources
Searching...   
[ Results for search key : ac-sources ]
[ Applications found : 2 ]
 
*  sys-kernel/ac-sources [ Masked ]
      Latest version available: 2.4.22-r4
      Latest version installed: 2.4.22-r4
      Size of downloaded files: 30,466 kB
      Homepage:    http://www.kernel.org/ http://www.gentoo.org/
      Description: Full sources for Alan Cox's Linux kernel

Why does this show up as masked? It did not before.
The ebuild has:
KEYWORDS="x86"

and I don't have an /etc/portage/packages.mask file, so I don't know why it's
masked. Any ideas?
