- User has INSTALL_MASK="/lib/systemd" - Ebuild has INSTALL_MASK_OVERRIDE="/lib/systemd/systemd-udevd /lib/systemd/network" - Portage's default is to respect ebuild first, then users setting, unless he changes INSTALL_MASK_ORDER to respect his I completely agree using INSTALL_MASK is 100% responsibility of the user setting it, it's like blind 'rm -f', but some people don't agree and keep attacking me. I'm using the word attacking because it's constant, relentless, repeating and I don't see an end to it. I believe Poly-C just proofed that point in this thread.
