So I have a system with an older nvidia graphics card and it uses nvidia-drivers-1.0.9639. In my package.mask, I have: >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-1.0.9700. I am using portage-2.1.3.9.
I have a bunch of machines using a binary repo to install packages from (ie these machine don't compile). I keep a binary package of a newer nvidia driver in this repo, because some of the machines have newer video cards. The machine that needs the older driver keeps installing the new one during an emerge -Kav nvidia-drivers, regardless of the mask. But if I do an emerge -av nvidia-drivers, it doesn't show up.
Code: | n324x00 inputs # emerge -avK nvidia-drivers
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating world dependencies... done!
[binary U ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-100.14.11 [1.0.9639] USE="gtk (-multilib)" [?] |
Code: | n324x00 inputs # emerge -av nvidia-drivers
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-1.0.9639 USE="gtk (-multilib)" 0 kB |
I've been trying to solve this off and on for a couple of days, any idea would be appreciated.
