It's quite common for keywords to be missing because the ebuild author hasn't been able to verify it works on that platform. I quite often add ~amd64 or ~ppc to the keywords (ekeyword is easier than editing the ebuild) and find it works just fine. Of course, you should report it as working on Bugzilla if that happens. -- Neil Bothwick Windows - so intuitive you only need a meg of help files! pgp1QMiPlpN1u.pgp Description: PGP signature

Not sure what happens if you have more than one overlay. By the way: emerge --digest jack-audio-connection will build the new digest thing, you no longer need to ebuild /long/path/balh.ebuild digest first. You will make sure you submit your changes to the ebuild to bugs.g.o won't you? Also remember someone made this ebuild -amd64 for a reason, it may not work (or worse it may screw something else).

Also, is it important to ensure absolutely no overlap in names? Since I just copied the one one in portage but didn't rename it I wasn't sure I wouldn't do some damage to the database somehow.

How bizarre! I guess I should learn how to write an ebuild then. Jack is actually up to something like 0.100.5 so this is getting pretty old at this point. (15 minutes later...) I just copied the ebuild to under /usr/local/portage and modified it to suit me. emerge now finds but it doesn't build as it complains about 'no maifest'. I also see some bug reports on line about this new version breaking older Jack apps so maybe I'd better go slow here. thanks, Mark Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] jack-audio-connection-kit-0.100.0 ??
Hi there, I see an ebuild for Jack-0.100.0 but I don't seem to be able to build it on my AMD64 machine or on my P4 laptop. I do not see it listed in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask so I don't think it should be unbuildable. (Same results with both ~x86 and ~amd64) lightning ~ # ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge -pv =media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-0.100.0 These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-0.100.0" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-0.100.0 (masked by: -amd64 keyword) For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook. lightning ~ # I've tried building it on both AMD64 and a standard P4 machine but I cannot so far get emerge to build it. Why is this and what do I have to do to make it compile? I need a feature in this newish package. (Actually not so new anymore) Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
