After talking in #paludis I found out that the issue is where the package.mask file should be located. Moving it from /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask /usr/portage/profiles/base/package.mask does all /usr/portage/profiles/arch/x86 to invert the masks. Is this going to be a long running fight between Gentoo and Paludis, That leaves me with the workaround of moving the file, doing my updates, then moving the file back? _______________________________________________ paludis-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pioto.org/mailman/listinfo/paludis-user
