How to solve : All ebuilds that could satisfy ... have been masked.

Problem

During update, you have the following message :

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "x11-wm/compiz" have been masked.

!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:

- x11-wm/compiz-0.8.2-r3 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)


Solution


You have to put the package name in package.keywords.
It's because you have compiled in masked mode and when you make an update it try to search in masked package but it is not authorized.So you have to tell it that it can do by adding in package.keyword file.
