Hi.

A masking I don't understand... being new to gentoo & all that.

I tried to install divx4linux on an amd64 today... But it said it was masked. si I tried to set accept_keywords to ~amd64 for dev packages & it still says it's masked... Why is that? I don't quite understand, it only spoke about using ~arch for the keywords in the manpage... The actual output is

damned root # ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge divx4linux
Calculating dependencies !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "divx4linux" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- media-libs/divx4linux-20020418-r1 (masked by: -* keyword)
- media-libs/divx4linux-20020418-r2 (masked by: -* keyword)
- media-libs/divx4linux-20030428-r1 (masked by: -* keyword)
- media-libs/divx4linux-20030428 (masked by: -* keyword)


For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.

damned root #



What should I do to install this?

TIA

Hamish.
