 Posted: Sun Oct 24, 2004 11:14 pm Post subject: [Solved] Explain ACCEPT_KEYWORD=~amd64 |
 |
|
I was able to get a compile to work on amd64 based on threads in this forum. However, could someone explain to me what I was successful and what the extra steps mean?
On an amd64 system when trying to run emerge app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-gtklibs I recieved errors regarding missing keywords. I corrected it by doing the following.
I created /etc/portage/package.keywords with the line
emerge app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs ~amd64.
I then ran ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~amd64 emerge app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs successfully.
Similarly, to successfully run emerge app-office/openoffice-bin I had to add app-office/openoffice-bin ~amd64 to package.keywords and instead run ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~amd64 emerge app-office/openoffice-bin

Hi,
this link maybe helpfull too:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=3
Note: you should never use: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~arch" emerge somepackage
The alternatives are described in the link i posted:
Either put ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in the make.conf (this gives you a complete testing system) or use /etc/portage/package.keywords (here you can define single packages which you want to have as testing)
Edit: in your case i suggest using /etc/portage/package.keywords
Greetings,
