And how do you emerge it?


I get a msg like

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

Calculating dependencies
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0_beta1-r1" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0_beta1-r1 (masked by: package.mask)

!!! Error calculating dependencies. Please correct.


after doing

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge -p "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0_beta1-r1"
