That's pretty easy... and no need to unamsk! I would worry that the emerge of xfce4-panel might then bring in other testing packages as dependencies (but I don't know for sure). I would think it saver to add xfce-panel to package.keywords echo xfce-extra/xfce4-panelmenu >> /etc/portage/package.keywords (mkdir /etc/portage if you don't already have it.) There are various prefixes and suffixes you could add. See man portage for details For example my package.keywords is currently x11-misc/googleearth app-editors/emacs-cvs ~x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-1.0.8774 ~net-print/cups-1.2.1-r2 ~app-text/libpaper-1.1.14.8 net-wireless/bcm43xx-fwcutter #~media-gfx/graphviz-2.12 allan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
