I haven't tried the autounmask option from portage, neither. The GNOME
overlay offers a series of files you can link to your
/etc/portage/package.{unmask,keywords,use,use.mask} directories: They
are located in
${OVERLAYDIR}/status/portage-configs/
I haven't used those either, though. I prefer to unmask/keyword
packages myself. What I do know is that using live ebuilds is
basically flipping a coin; sometimes will work great, sometimes it
will not even compile.
Right now the only live ebuilds I'm using are:
gnome-extra/libgda-9999
media-sound/rhythmbox-9999
sys-apps/gnome-disk-utility-9999
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-weather-9999
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-system-monitor-9999
Everything else works with the latest non-live ebuilds.
Regards.
