Hi there,

I added app-office/openoffice-ximian-bin ~x86 to /etc/portage/package.keywords.
But emerge -ka openoffice-ximian-bin gives
Code:
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies
!!! Problem in app-office/openoffice-ximian-bin dependencies.
!!! "Specific key requires an operator (app-office/openoffice-ximian-bin-1.1.52) (try adding an '=')"


Very unspecific error, I think.
Looked at the dependencies in the ebuild file, but I don't know enough about ebuilds.
Any help would be appreciated.

That is a binary package by itself. You don't need the -k option. Try
Code:
emerge -a openoffice-ximian-bin

agree, -k is unnecessary.
but -a, -p or no parameter all give the same =/

I just always state -ka, cause I use binary packages. But that cannot be the problem, because there exists no binary package.
FYI, portage can create a binary package of a -bin ebuild. It just takes the contents of the downloaded file, unpacks it in an image dir and tbz2's it again for storage in /usr/portage/packages. This should not affect the behaviour of -bin packages, although it doesn't do much useful besides wasting space =)

Well, I can't reproduce the error. If you didn't put also the version number in /etc/portage/package.keywords it may be an error in your copy of the ebuild. How does the RDEPEND section of the ebuild look?

I can't reproduce either using portage-2.0.50-r6.

Lemme guess: in /etc/portage/package.keywords, you've got:

Code:
app-office/openoffice-ximian-bin-1.1.52 ~x86


instead of:

Code:
=app-office/openoffice-ximian-bin-1.1.52 ~x86


Personally, I would have (if I used it):

Code:
app-office/openoffice-ximian-bin ~x86


You can't use a specific key (i.e., -1.1.52) without an operator (such as >, <, >=, <=, =, ~ etc.)

Thanks, robmoss, you were right, I had the version in package.keywords... Even though I looked at the file before I posted, I didn't notice the error. And I had the right entry in my post, didn't I? =)
