What's a major arch? The devmanual still says[0], Moving a package from ~arch to arch is done only by the relevant arch teams. According to [1] that section is no longer correct, but only x86 and amd64 are exceptions to the rule that used to be exceptions but then weren't anymore. I'm going to write a devmanual patch but don't want to sound like a lunatic. [0] http://devmanual.gentoo.org/keywording/index.html [1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/89711
