so hello i been using gentoo for 4 years now, but i cant figure out how to properly install usntable packages.

today i wanted to install bottles wine emulator and my process is

Code:

sudo emerge -av bottles
sudo vim /etc/portage/package.accepter_keywords/pacakges
# copy needed requirement from output emerge -av bottles and paste into packages as >=blabla/packagename-version ~amd64
sudo emerge -av bottles
sudo vim /etc/portage/package.accepter_keywords/pacakges
# copy needed requirement from output emerge -av bottles and paste into packages as >=blabla/packagename-version ~amd64
#repeat ..... until i can merge it


is there a better way?

There is:
man emerge wrote:
--autounmask-write [ y | n ]
If --autounmask is enabled, changes are written to config files, respecting CONFIG_PROTECT and --ask. If the corresponding package.* is a file, the changes are appended to it, if it is a direc‐
tory, changes are written to the lexicographically last file. This way it is always ensured that the new changes take precedence over existing changes. This option is automatically enabled with
--ask.

If that is a true printout, you've got the wrong filename. It's "accept_keywords" not "accepter_keywords"

It should be used in conjunction with etc-update or dispatch-conf. However it's not a recommended method.

Did you see Goverp's post? You have a mistake in your filename.
