I can remove that masking from here now, it dates back years to when e17 was in an overlay with some peculiar masking applied. Portage too many times would miss an update and want to install e16 so the easiest was to just mask it locally. I don't really need that anymore, so thanks for getting me to look there :-) -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
