This only works if the package is marked for testing, which it is not in this case.


- media-libs/divx4linux-20030428-r1 (masked by: -* keyword)
What should I do to install this?

The standard procedure would be to set the apropriate keyword for the package:


# mkdir -p /etc/portage
# echo "media-libs/divx4linux -*" >> /etc/portage/packages.keywords
# emerge media-libs/divx4linux

But since this is a binary package, I'm not sure if it will work an your amd64 system.
