ok. im trying to get xft emerged with an install of xorg.. following
the guide given on page 1, i've done the following..

Code:

cat /etc/make.profile/virtuals
<snip>
virtual/xfree           x11-base/xorg-x11
virtual/x11             x11-base/xorg-x11
virtual/opengl          x11-base/xorg-x11
virtual/glu             x11-base/xorg-x11
virtual/xft             x11-base/xorg-x11

and..
Code:

cat /etc/portage/package.mask
..
x11-base/xfree

and..
Code:

cat /etc/portage/package.keywords
..
x11-base/xorg-x11 ~x86
x11-terms/xterm ~x86
x11-base/opengl-update ~x86

yet..
Code:

# emerge -p xft

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies \
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "x11-base/xfree" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r5 (masked by: package.mask)
- x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6 (masked by: package.mask)
- x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r7 (masked by: package.mask, ~keyword)
!!!    (dependency required by "x11-libs/xft-2.0.1-r2" [ebuild])

!!! Error calculating dependencies. Please correct.

And i've added xft to the virtuals file.. and it doesn't seem to solve the
issue. what gives? Thank you in advance!

cat /etc/make.profile/virtuals

Shouldn't show xfree anywhere. Just replace all instances of xfree with xorg-x11 and see what that does.

Worth a shot.

the virtual in that file.. is to redirect stuff, that needs xfree,
as a dependacy, to the xorg package instead.

so im one slightly confused dog. lol. *bark*
