One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - sys-fs/udev-9999 (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword) /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask: # Matthias Schwarzott <z...@gentoo.org> (3 Jul 2009) # It needs libblkid provided by util-linux-2.16 not yet released - sys-fs/udev-145 (masked by: package.mask) For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
