All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-fs/udev-151-r4" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - sys-fs/udev-9999::gentoo (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword) /etc/portage/package.mask: I'll update my instructions to mention this. Thanks for your help. Even a negative result, i.e. knowing what doesn't work, is one more piece of information in my quest. -- Walter Dnes
