I've now created a package.provided file in two locations to be sure. /etc/portage/profile/package.provided /etc/make.profile/package.provided (as referenced in `man portage') The file contains: dev-utils/cvs-1.12.11 app-editors/emacs-cvs-22.0.50.1 However I still see the same output from emerge. It still wants to install emacs-21.. as dependancy for emacs-w3m, and cvs-1.11.. as dependancy for emacs-cvs. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
