I'm trying to emerge zaptel-1.4 but can't seem to find where zaptel-1.4 is masked.
Code:
emerge -pv =zaptel-1.4.4

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=net-misc/zaptel-1.4.4" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- net-misc/zaptel-1.4.4 (masked by: missing keyword)


in package.keywords:
net-misc/zaptel ~amd64

package.unmask
<net-misc/asterisk-1.6
net-misc/zaptel

I don't see zaptel-1.4 being masked in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask

I'm trying to build zaptel with oslec: http://www.rowetel.com/ucasterisk/oslec.html#install
But I think DAHDI is replacing zaptel so should I just go with DAHDI?

I'm trying to install sangoma usbfxo unit: http://wiki.sangoma.com/sangoma-wanpipe-usbfxo
and according to their instruction, when I'll be running their setup:
Quote:
Setup will ask you for location of zaptel sources?
[By default Setup will look in /usr/src/zaptel]
so at this point I don't know if it will work as installing from ebuild as the setup is looking for source file in /usr/src/zaptel and there will be nothing there.
Should I just go and compile from all asterisk, zaptel from source?

Please read the output! and it says missing keyword, which means no keyword! (read this as reference)

put the following into /etc/portage/package.keyword
Code:
 net-misc/zaptel **


cheers

When was this "**" keyword introduced? :-/
"~amd" is the first thing I tried but it didn't work. Oh well, we always learn something new.
Thanks

It was introduced some time ago....

In the normal case, you only need a testing package (and ~arch keyword), and basically tell portage that using ~arch is a valid keyword to. But if a package has no keywords, ** tells portage to ignore the missing keyword, and install it anyway.

hope this clarifies things
