Hi!
I'm wondering if anyone's written a script that looks deep into the
build dependencies of some package foo, and gives you a list of
ebuilds you need to unmask to build it. Immediate build dependencies
could easily be shown using the ebuild itself, and deep dependencies
could be shown using eque

Hi guys,
Eix is one of those packages where you just set it and forget it, and
apparently I've forgotten there was even anything to set.
I have a home PC running gentoo. If I do eix foo, and foo happens to
be keyworded unmasked in my package.keywords, I get for instance:
[I] dev-python/snakeoil
unchanged to ebuild.sh

Seems to be just paths, don't see why that would cause a problem.

Neat thing, after I finished my kernel compile and did a reboot, the
/sys/fs/cgroup directory appears by default, so I don't need to mkdir
and can directly just place it in fstab.
With zen-sources, at least, but it sounds like what upstream behavior should do.
