Re: [gentoo-user] How to lock an ebuild version?
Yes, I was a little bit unprecise. Now I copied the tree and masked newer versions. If you will have only one version of the ebuild, and never upgrade it, why not use the --oneshot switch. Then it will not be added to world and will not be considered for up or downgrading. -- Sigurd Stordal President of GOGS Experimental Petrologist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

It depends on many other ebuilds. I don't want to keep it for ever, but I have to reconfigure other hosts in our network for the new version.

[gentoo-user] How to lock an ebuild version?
Hi, how can I keep a specific version of an ebuild on my system? I don't want it to be updated with emerge -puvUD world. Kai -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
RE: [gentoo-user] How to lock an ebuild version?
create /etc/portage directory.. Then create package.mask. And put in there =ebuild.version.. Hi, how can I keep a specific version of an ebuild on my system? I don't want it to be updated with emerge -puvUD world. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] How to lock an ebuild version?
Will that keep an emerge sync from deleting the physical *.ebuild files? I have a feeling one might want to keep those around and not have the rsync process wipe it out.

RE: [gentoo-user] How to lock an ebuild version?
Well, wherever you set your portdir_overlay directory, just cp that ebuild WITH directory style over to that directory. That will keep the ebuild you want in case its deleted from portage.. Its very important you copy the categories and so forth are copied with to make sure it works right.. Will that keep an emerge sync from deleting the physical *.ebuild files?

Tom Veldhouse create /usr/local/portage, use the same directory structure as /usr/portage (i.e. /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel). Copy the e-builds that you want to keep there. Next, edit make.conf, looking for the line PORTDIR_OVERLAY (I think) and adjust it to suit your needs. -rex -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
