Where is everything?

[bd]

I just wondered where all the things that were in portage are, and why some new things doesn't show up.
Right now i can't remember so many things i miss but at least i miss these two:
swat
superkaramba

or maybe i just spell them wrong?

THANKS

super karamba is just a simple
"emerge superkaramba"

swat is part of samba actually, dont remember how to set it up there should be something in docs, hints and tips. i'll look in a minute

superkaramba is masked, how can i merge it?

[Paidhi]

To merge a masked package you can use ACCEPT_KEYWORDS.
In your case:

Code: Select all

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge superkaramba

or call emerge with the full path of the ebuild:

Code: Select all

emerge /usr/portage/x11-misc/superkaramba/superkaramba-0.21.ebuild

First:
Thanks paidhi!

And then:
Why are packages masked?

[aanund]

because they are not considered "stable enough" to be part of stable, i.e. they might break something, clash with other packages in stable or blah blah blah.
