What if I want to emerge, say, apache 1.3.28 instead of 2.0.47? How would I do that?

You can specify the whole path to the ebuild you want. e.g.

Code:

emerge /usr/portage/net-www/apache/apache-1.3.28.ebuild

Moving to Portage & Programming from Installing Gentoo.

You can also explicitly specify the version like this:

Code:

emerge =apache-1.3.28

It's a little less typing than the other way
