RE: [gentoo-user] how to remove package for ever
Please is it possible to remove package by specifying it within make.conf file??? No, that's not what make.conf is used for. I want to remove balckdown/ibm JDKs. You can use the 'emerge -i dev-java/blackdown-jdk dev-java/blackdown-jre' command to make portage think it's installed but not install it (see injecting under the emerge man page). -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
