2006-05-22 Thread Leandro Melo de Sales

Ok. The package in question is mysql. I what to install version 3, but
I masked the oldest 4.0 and emerge search returns mysql version 5. How
can I install version 3?

Thanks,

Leandro

 Hi,

   I want to install an previous version of a package. I need to mask
 it at /etc/portage/package.mask, but how can I know the available
 gentoo packages in order to mask the right one?

 Thanks
 Leandro

The simplest method is to have a look at http://packages.gentoo.org/ .

That command is obsolete.  Man equery for the replacement, the one I

Put =dev-db/mysql-4 in package.mask, or just emerge =dev-db/mysql-3*
