The few times I've tried backing down from current installed to older
versions of something... I've had a problem getting the syntax right.
According to man emerge and man portage this syntax should work:
Either: emerge -vp ">="mail-mta/sendmail-8.13.7
or
emerge -vp ">=mail-mta/sendmail-8.13.7"
But in either case I get this output:
=====
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] mail-mta/sendmail-8.14.0 USE="mbox sasl ssl tcpd -ipv6 -ldap
-mailwrapper -nis -sockets" 2,009 kB
=====
8.14.0 is what is currently installed:
I'm unable to sendmail.... getting exit 127, following a recent update
world. I'm attempting to find what has broken the setup.
I did not allow the updated sendmail.cf or sendmail.mc to overwrite
the existing ones and have restarted sendmail.
Other possible culprits might be:
dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.22-r2
sys-libs/pam-0.99.7.1
So cutting to the chase here; my real problem is not being able to
sendmail, secondarily is how to back down a version with emerge.
