As the Games team does not have enough manpower to keep tabs on all games packages, we have dropped all ebuilds maintained by the games project to unstable KEYWORDS (without those required by other stable packages). If you have any of these stable games packages installed, you will have to add them to /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/ manually. Failures related to missing stable KEYWORDS will show up as The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed: (see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more details) # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) =games-action/0verkill-0.16-r4 ~amd64 While we accept that this will cause some irritation for the community, pretending we have a well supported games collection by having a wealth of stable games packages is misleading at best. We welcome contributions from outsiders willing to polish up the games landscape in Gentoo via the Proxy Maintainers.
