I hope you can help me. I swear I am going to go nuts. I have tried
every option and read every mask posting on the web.

I can't emerge this on app onto my ultra 5 running gentoo 2004.3.
I have tried a million different things and nothing works. Here are the
3 lines that should be working.


ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="-sparc" emerge =net-misc/icaclient-6.30-r1

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~sparc" emerge =net-misc/icaclient-6.30-r1

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="sparc" emerge =net-misc/icaclient-6.30-r1

Here is the error I continually get:

Calculating dependencies
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=net-misc/icaclient-6.30-r1" have
been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
request:
- net-misc/icaclient-6.30-r1 (masked by: -sparc keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.

What key word should I be passing to it.

Erik,
Try passing
# ACCEPT_KEYWORD="~sparc" emerge icaclient
If there are more masked packages you need to edit portage to accept
masked packages. The reason that packages are masked is due to them
not being cleared as stable in the main portage tree. Check the
portage docs on gentoo's website to see more about unmasking packages.
