The prefix ~ says that a program (not the ebuild) is unstable, the prefix ^ means, that the package is nearly unusable and no prefix means that the app runs mostly stable.
x86 says "Intel compatible CPU", ppc says "PowerPC CPU" etc. So ~x86 means that an app runs unstable on systems with an Intel compatible CPU and ^ppc means, that an app is nearly unusable on PC with PPC (Macs) etc. -- Linux inside NP: nothing -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
