Hi, how can I unmask a use flag masked in profiles/base/package.use.mask? If I set the flag for the package in / etc/portage/package.use it is simply ignored.
Concrete example: My /etc/portage/package.use contains the line: dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin:9 doc gentoo-vm source However the flag 'gentoo-vm' is always ignored because it is masked in profiles/base/package.use.mask with the line: dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin:9 gentoo-vm What's the proper procedure to unmask the flag locally? (Yes, I know it is experimental and yes I know what I am doing with it. I already use eselect for older EA builds of Java 9 with 1.9 slot and new EA builds of Java 10 - just not the "official" Java 9 from the tree.) Cheers, Jörg
