Hello everyone, i just want to install the fcitx in gentoo , but when i
emerge fcitx , it comes the problem, the message are bleow:

* IMPORTANT: 6 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ~] app-i18n/fcitx-4.2.1  USE="cairo dbus gtk pango -debug
-gtk3 -opencc -qt -table" 557 kB

Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 557 kB

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
#required by fcitx (argument)
=app-i18n/fcitx-4.2.1 ~x86

Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring
CONFIG_PROTECT).

 * IMPORTANT: 6 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.

How did this happen? i have tried to use --autounmask-write , but it didn't
work, Can anyone help me ?

When you ran it with autounmask-write, did you update the config files?
 It looks to me like fcitx is keyworded.

[Michael Scherer]

the message says
=app-i18n/fcitx-4.2.1 ~x86
which means that the package is masked for x86
if you really need to install it, unmasking the
package should work

 =app-i18n/fcitx-4.2.1 ~x86      <-----  This is error message

Portage is telling you to change the KEYWORD for the fcitx package before it
will agree to proceed with the installation.  This is very confusing and
easy to miss, unfortunately.

The reason for KEYWORD change is this:

#grep KEY /usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/*
/usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/fcitx-3.6.3.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~ppc ~x86"
/usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/fcitx-3.6.4.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~ppc ~x86"
/usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/fcitx-4.0.0.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~ppc ~x86"
/usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/fcitx-4.0.1.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~ppc ~x86"
/usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/fcitx-4.2.0-r2.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86"
/usr/portage/app-i18n/fcitx/fcitx-4.2.1.ebuild:KEYWORDS="amd64 ~x86"

You can see from the above that there is no stable (x86) package for fcitx, so
if you want to install it you must add it to /etc/portage/package.keywords
like this:

#cat /etc/portage/package.keywords 
app-i18n/xcitx                          ~x86    <---------
app-office/libreoffice                  -~amd64
dev-libs/icu                            -~amd64

The minus sign in front of ~amd64 means that I want the stable (amd64) version
of libreoffice and icu, not the unstable (~amd64) version.  You want the opposite,
so don't add the minus sign for xcitx :)
