Include the exact version of crossdev that you have. Normally crossdev would append its data to the file, if it was previously a file, and if it was a directory (or didn't exist, I guess) crossdev would put its data in a file in the directory (as you see above). > Now where has the old file gone, and where do I put things that I > would have put in it? The portage Web page offers no hints. I would imagine that the old file has been deleted. You can put the data in any filename inside (what is now the directory) /etc/portage/package.keywords/ You can call the file whatever you want - indeed you can have as many files as you want, so you can group the keyworded packages in a way that's suitable for you. --=20 Kevin F.
