Hi,
I want to install asfrecord. It is not installed in a different
version right now.
eix asfrecord gives me this:
* media-video/asfrecorder
Available versions: *1.1
Homepage: http://sourceforge.net/projects/asfrecorder/
Description: ASFRecorder - Download Windows Media Streaming files
emerge -pv media-video/asfrecord gives me
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild N *] media-video/asfrecorder-1.1 369 kB
Total: 1 packages (1 new), Size of downloads: 369 kB
The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
#required by media-video/asfrecorder (argument)
>=media-video/asfrecorder-1.1 **
man emerge says nothing about [ebuild N *] but about
[ebuild U *] sys-apps/portage-2.2.0_alpha6 [2.1.9.25]
Portage 2.1.9.25 is installed, but if you run the command, then
portage will
upgrade to version 2.2.0_alpha6. In this case, the * symbol is
displayed, in order
to indicate that version 2.2.0_alpha6 is masked by missing keyword.
This type of
masking display is disabled by the --quiet option if the
--verbose option is not
enabled simultaneously. The following symbols are used to indicate
various types
of masking:
Symbol Mask Type
# package.mask
* missing keyword
~ unstable keyword
NOTE: The unstable keyword symbol (~) will not be shown in cases in
which the cor‐
responding unstable keywords have been accepted globally via
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS.
It seems there is a "missing keyword".
Unfortunately I now know there is a keyword missing. But what keyword?
And how can I manage to install that package?
Thank you very much for any help in advance!
Best regards,
mcc
