-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Zac recently added a very useful option to repoman "--without-mask" that
makes repoman silence the warnings about masked packages.
An example where this would be useful is when working with the ebuilds for
kde-4.1, as all ebuilds >4.0 are p. masked in
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask, pcheck keeps complaining about
nonsolvable deps.
An interesting alternative would be the possibility to have a
package.unmask file at the <repo>/profiles dir - so that we could unmask
certain packages provided by the repo, without requiring the user to copy
a file or to set the file in /etc/portage.
