They just changed from package masking to keyword masking, as noted in the ChangeLog "Drop keywords from portage-2.2*, as a substitute for masking via package.mask." Remove the entry from /etc/portage/package.unmask and add it to /etc/portage/package.keywords. This applies equally to ~x86 and ~amd64. -- Neil Bothwick When you finally buy enough memory, you will not have enough disk space. -- Murphy's Computer Laws n°3
