 |
|
Hi guys,
while I have selected to enable unstable packages for this computer, putting in make.conf
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64"
I would like to obtain stable packages ONLY for some applications.
How to do that?
regards

Off the top of my head I would use /etc/portage/package.keywords, and instead of unmasking packages there, add the stable keyword. For example:
| Code: | | sys-kernel/gentoo-sources amd64 |
I've never tried it, but it seems like it should work. On my systems I prefer to keep everything stable, and unmask packages as necessary... so basically the opposite of what you want to do. |

| Did you also disable accepting the unstable keyword for your architecture for that package? |
