QUESTION: Assume I'm happy with ~amd64 on @system, but want to build the stable version of gnome or kde. How do I get it? Since gnome-2.26
You could opt to retain the ~amd64 keyword on system packages alone. Consider the following (which requires portage-utils):
$ emerge -qep system | sed -rne '/^\[ebuild/{s/(^| )\[[^]]*\]( |$)//gp}' | xargs qatom | awk '{ print $1"/"$2 }'
You might then proceed to place the output of the above command in package.keywords then switch ACCEPT_KEYWORDS back to "amd64".
