wskellenger's Journal: Emerging masked ebuilds

Always learning. Today I wanted to emerge a newer package than portage would allow. This is simple with the "ACCEPT_KEYWORDS" variable:

bash-2.05b# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge mozilla-firebird-cvs

I wanted to emerge a newer version of rioutil, namely 1.4.4, because it seems that no one on SourceForge is having problems with it. This is the way that I emerged it, and it works fine on my machine.

Kim can finally use the MP3 player that I bought for her birthday. :)
