The first one gives me invalid atom error the rest just give the package mask error mentioned in my first email. =media-video/spca5xx =media-video/spca5xx-20060501-r1 ~x86 <=media-video/spca5xx-20060501-r1 ~x86 >=media-video/spca5xx-20060501-r1 ~x86 funny thing is i got the masked zoneminder port to build using these in /etc/portage/package.keywords www-misc/zoneminder dev-perl/PHP-Serialization ps i am using ccache could that have an effect? > > > You also can use > or >= (I think) but you need a version number. > Choose > ~ for you system like ~x86 (You don't need to specify I think) > > kh
