 Posted: Mon Mar 24, 2008 7:38 am Post subject: [solved] Force version |
 |
|
Hey all,
how can I force using kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r9?
I tried putting
| Code: |
<=sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r9 ~amd64
|
or
| Code: |
<=sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r9
|
or
| Code: |
=sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r9 ~amd64
|
or
| Code: |
=sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r9
|
into the /etc/portage/package.keywords file, but it still wants to emerge a higher version.
Any help would be awesome!
-Christian.

What you want is
| Code: |
>sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r9
|
In package.mask instead.

But wouldn't that mean ">" larger, as in "this version, or later one if you have"?

That means "mask all versions of this package that are greater than this version". Note that this is package.mask, not package.keywords nor package.unmask.
As a consequence of masking all the versions above that, this will be the greatest version available of this package, so, it will be the one that portage will emerge.
