Hi guys,
I'm new to gentoo, after getting a referral from a buddy of mine. I've
got a year or so's experience with Linux in general, mostly coming from
the RedHat side, but after hearing about the philosophy behind gentoo, I
decided to check it out.
So far, I'm pretty impressed. The install
I'm setting up a web/dns/mail server as my first try at gentoo, and
everything was going along pretty well as I installed bind and apache

The man page (man emerge) says that you can inject a package. Or make

emerge inject pkgname
If portage thinks the latest version is installed it won't worry that
you have a newer one installed. Hope that helps.
Side note for everyone else,
