Jeroen, there are two different things that were already told in this
tread, but I'll try to repeat in different words, in hope to make them
clearer.

1. keywords were dropped on purpose: kde-4 is a major rewrite and it is
supposed to be thoroughly tested by arch team before becoming ~arch.
This fits our current policy.

2. you can not expect anything about the hardmasked ebuild/package[1]:
don't expect that it'll work, don't expect maintainers to tell you
anything (fill you bug) about it. We have such packages in the tree
because some brave users[2] and maintainers want to test them before
they'll enter ~arch. But for users we have policy to prohibit bugs for
hardmasked packages because if you want to report anything back you are
supposed to follow Gentoo and upstream development and if you follow,
you'll know what reports are allowed and that this policy is not quite
true :). If you'd followed kde development you'd were aware about
changes and you tested packages together with kde developers and ebuilds
entered tree with ~hppa. You don't follow kde development than it's
better not to touch hardmasked kde packages.

So if you want to see another policy it's possible to write that arch
teams should not bother to work with hardmasked ebuilds and that's it.
But I do not think we need such policy as hardmasked means hidden far
from users...


[1] yes, the are the same in this context
[2] developers who are not maintainers are users too

With best wishes,
--=20
Peter.
