Aliasing ACCEPT_KEYWORDSThis tip was submitted by developer Caleb Tennis I saw a user post this in a bug comment, and thought it was a good idea. In your .bashrc file, add the line: Code Listing 1 alias akmrg='ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge' This will allow you to emerge unstable ebuilds by typing akmrg foo instead of the more cumbersome ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge foo. However, if you always want to have certain keywords in place when emerging particular ebuilds, the recommended way is to edit /etc/portage/package.keywords. For example, to have net-misc/totd emerged with the ~x86 keyword, add the following: Code Listing 2 net-misc/totd ~x86 This also makes using the --upgrade-only option of emerge unnecessary.
