ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pv om I had ~amd64 due to the machine I tried it on yesterday. The problem with the above method is it would five you ~x86 for anything else it pulls in. A more acceptable way would be to add media-sound/om ~x86 to /etc/portage/package.keywords. That will give you ~x86 for om and stable for everything else. If that method runs into some package that's also masked, then you add that package to package.keywords until you have what you need. I'd emerge this now but I'm in the middle of a qt rebuilt to (hopefully) fix a problem with MythTV. > > BTW there are ebuilds for om, omins, and smack, at a link from > http://smack.berlios.de .
