Hello.
Since my last portage update (like many other people), I got the error message
Calculating world dependencies
!!! Problems have been detected with your world file
!!! Please run emaint --check world
I run emaint --check world and it told me this :
'app-emulation/vmware-linux-tools' has no ebuilds available
Then, I do a emerge -s vmware-linux-tools :
* app-emulation/vmware-linux-tools [ Masked ]
Latest version available: 5.0.0
Latest version installed: 5.0.0
Size of downloaded files: 11,103 kB
Homepage: http://www.vmware.com/
Description: Guest-os tools for VMWare workstation
License: vmware
Then I thought "Oh yes, sure this stuff is not into the stable branch !"
(and I'm not "~x86" because I'm a Gentoo newbie)
I make also a emerge --info vmware-linux-tools to check but I saw this :
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86"
I don't understand then why it is masked...
I search on the Gentoo portage documentation and put
app-emulation/vmware-linux-tools
into the /etc/portage/package.unmask file
but after that, nothing changed :-(
I have two questions :
Why is it masked although ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ?
How could I resolve my issue and make it unmasked for me ?
Thank you :-)
