How to install masked packages?
Posted: Sat May 13, 2006 7:54 am
Hi I read this tutorial on how to install masked packages: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/h ... t=3&chap=3.
Unfortunately I don't have any of the files it mentions in /etc/portage. I only have three files there called .keep package.mask and a folder called 'sets'.
I want to install/compile lastfm player and a few other apps that are inexplicably masked - but I want to stay as much with the stable tree as possible.
How can I achieve this?
