In my mind, that little lemming that somehow appears along with his emails is the sign of a good addition to the thread. I'm sure he didn't mean to insult you. I hope that you agree that even though you started the thread, the information he gave could be useful to others reading it. I thought it was an informative and well-written post myself, not that yours aren't, but don't be too defensive. We're all here to learn (and perhaps to teach, occasionally at least ;) ) to answer your original question succinctly: > Can anyone tell me what packages you know of that will break your > system if you choose to put "ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~amd64" in your make.conf > file? no, no one can tell until they are tested, and then they will be marked stable. If I may take a moment to make a few (friendly and respectful!) criticisms of your post, that may have given people the wrong impression, I think there are probably two things that may have done so: firstly, your subject line was 'Can anyone help me?' Sure, you're asking for help, but a more relevant subject line would have nicely synopsized your post. Most people that start a thread here _are_ looking for help, after all. Secondly, I think this: >I do know that the only way to fix the problem was to restore from >backup, or to try re-installing again. I just want to know which >packages are so unstable that I should mask them. definitely made my blood boil a little. It sounds as if, with your gawk case here, a careful analysis of the log files could have perhaps provided you with a few fundamentals from /usr/lib that were missing and only needed to be copied over to / before /usr or /usr/lib was mounted from it's seperate filesystem. (I am just guessing that's how Neil solved this particular problem, although I wouldn't know.) Saying that the only way to fix a particular problem is by replacing the software with a working version is very rarely the case. I hope you can understand how that could give us a little bit of a bad first impression here on the lists, because it consists of a lot of serious gentooers that all seem to share a dislike of reinstalls and backup restorations rather than responding to particular error messages and resolving their problems that way. Perhaps it's just the gentoo way - reinstalling seems to be very popular in ubuntu. Anyhow, my advice to you is to do what many, including myself do - save yourself the headache of running ~amd64, and only use package.keywords to unmask packages as necessary. Good luck, and may you withhold judgment of me as I have of you, Dan Farrell -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Can anyone tell me?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 Hello Mark, I was under the impression that packages with the ~amd64 (or ~x86) keywords are in testing, but no serious instabilities had been found, or they would be hard masked. I have had non-testing packages break my system before, as well. What generally happens is the the environment variables become messed up, or the service dependencies do - either way, I can't use emerge or any of the available utilities to fix the problem, or even find out what it does. About a year ago, I went to a testing system and haven't had any problems, except when I re-install Gentoo. I guess it is always a choice - either go with the "stable" version of a distribution or you go with the testing version (some people really push the envelope and go for the unstable version). I read up on the keywords, and found out that having the ~mad64 keyword on a package just means that it hasn't been adequately tested on that architecture. That's how people like me help move things along - by testing those packages on our systems, and reporting any problems we find.

My experience is the same as Mark's. I use ~amd64 only when necessary, and although sometimes it doesn't work or is buggy afterwords (after all, it's testing) it has never once broken the system.

Important note here: There is _no_ name based virtual hosts when using SSL. That's simply due to that the SSL layer kicks in first, HTTP is staged after that. So "NameVirtualHost *:443" does not make sense. Note that name based vhosts are a feature of HTTP (1.1). It analyzes the "Hostname" header in the Http request. Obviously, this is not possible to archive if an SSL connection should be established first. So basically that means you can only have one SSL server per IP.
