It isn't for want of trying but I get a 'package.mask' as mentioned in my
original msg. Can't emerge either of them. The one I need is really RP10,
though. Guess I'll have to keep SuSE around for a little while ...until I
get this figured out.

8 works on my machine, 8-r7 in fact. emerge it and you should see.

its probably not hugely popular when open source alternatives will play
many file formats, it can be useful though.

I know your problem has been resolved, but for future reference, if a
package you want is hard-masked, a good place to check is
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask. There is often a comment in there
explaining why it's masked. In this case, you would have found this:

# <solar@gentoo.org> (06 Feb 2004)
# RealOne/RealPlayer 8 vulnerabilities bug #40469
media-video/realplayer
media-video/realone

If you go to bugs.gentoo.org and search the bug number (40469), you'll
see a pretty complete explanation of why it was masked.
