This is an X86 box (Atom N270), but it's more complex than that: (atom) peak / # equery w net-print/kyocera-1x2x-mfp-driver !!! No packages matching 'net-print/kyocera-1x2x-mfp-driver' (atom) peak / # ls -l /usr/portage/net-print/kyocera-1x2x-mfp-driver total 7.0K drwxr-xr-x 2 portage portage 1.0K Sep 6 2017 files -rw-r--r-- 1 portage portage 3.4K Jan 15 2018 kyocera-1x2x-mfp-driver-1.1203-r1.ebuild -rw-r--r-- 1 portage portage 317 Dec 12 2017 Manifest -rw-r--r-- 1 portage portage 529 Sep 6 2017 metadata.xml Thus my usual use of portage tools failed, so I didn't get as far as seeing this: (atom) peak / # grep KEYWORDS /usr/portage/net-print/kyocera-1x2x-mfp-driver/*ebuild KEYWORDS="-* ~amd64" Something does seem to be, if not broken, somewhat bent. -- Regards, Peter.
