hi!

when I try to update virtualbox-ose-additions, portage says:

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy
"~app-emulation/virtualbox-ose-additions-3.0.8" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
request:
- app-emulation/virtualbox-ose-additions-3.0.8 (masked by: PUEL
license(s))
A copy of the 'PUEL' license is located at
'/usr/portage/licenses/PUEL'.

it suggests me to read the Gentoo Handbook, but it isn't updated.

what should I do to unmask this package? I've never seen this kind of
masking.
        

In make.conf:

  ACCEPT_LICENSE="*"

to unmask all licenses.  Or else name the licenses you wish unmasked
one by one.



      

Yeah, they added this in a recent portage-2.2 rc. It masks end user
license agreements by default (-@EULA is the syntax, if I recall
correctly)


    

I checked make.conf.example and this is not documented yet.  I'm on
portage-2.2_rc46.  Is it in a later version or did I miss something? 
The file I checked is here:

/usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example

Just curious.
