|

Hi. I need to emerge Firebird 1.5.4-r3. But in my portage tree there are only 2.0 versions. How can I emerge versions that are not present in portage tree?

| Collect the old ebuild and any required files into an overlay then, if the files which are specified to be downloaded by the ebuild are still available, just install the package |

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
