Well, I must admit I'm not really in the position to negate that one.
Not a so travelled man, you know?

The truth is that it take me some time to notice you guys were talking
about our bible-like-one-that-works-e-book, I'm used to read English,

But never fear, I just discovered urbandictionary.com and from now on

Every generation has a mythology. Every millennium has a doomsday cult.
Every legend gets the distortion knob wound up until the speaker melts.
Archaeologists at the University of Helsinki today uncovered what could
be the earliest known writings from the Cult of Tux, a fanatical
religious sect that flourished during the early Silicon Age, around the
dawn of the third millennium AD...

 Hi there.

 I have a stable system (I don't have ~x86 set), but I like to have
 the latest versions of some specific software (kde, gnome, amarok,
 alsa, pulseaudio, wine and so on). To achieve that, I've been using
 autounmask with the parameter -n. When I have a package I want to
 keep in the latest version, I just autounmask -n package, so all the
 dependencies are unmasked and no version number is appended.

 That works fine, but I like to have the latest released versions,
 which means I usually want to get away from the * ebuilds. The
 trouble is, when I use autounmask without version numbers, those 
 packages usually are choosen by portage, for being the effective
 latest ones.

 I would like to know if there is a way for me to unmask
 (automatically if possible) all versions BUT the  ones, so I have
 the latest releases but the less CVS/Beta packages as possible.

I find autounmask does way too much for me, and does it blindly just 
like a dumb computer should. so I do it manually. However, you are 
using -n and at the same time trying to use it without -n...

Trying deleting the autounmask files in /etc/portage/package.unmask/, 
that should go a long way to removing the CVS stuff (which is usually 
hard masked) leaving just package.keywords. You might have to manually 
resolve some conflicts now and then though - small price

That's the way I did it before, you know... but it really comes to be
a pain in the ass when you want to test some new supercool releases
with tons of dependencies, such as kde-4 and so on.

However that's some neat tip, I haven't though on the possibility of
leaving just package.keywords, I'm giving it a try just right now!
Thanks a lot!

Compile time =)

Actually when I ripped off package.unmask, the kde-4 tree just got
crazy, so I moved back only autounmask-kde-meta. After that,
alsa-driver, which was at - wanted to go back to 1.0.15, that
doesn't compile (bug in bugs.gentoo), so I'm now compiling alsa
in-kernel, but ir pretty much seems to be working out (thinking about
an emerge -C `equery list | grep  | xargs` now)...

Anyway, I believe I got planty of time, it's raining a f***ing lot
here and I'm not inclined to be on my way to the University ^^

Re: [gentoo-user] Accept all versions but 9999

2008-03-14 Thread Gustavo Campos
Well, if anyone cares about it (emo mode) it worked reasonably nice.
Actually I had a bit less cvs packages then I originally though, but still I
was able to get rid of most of them. Only compiz and scrollkeeper remain.
One because of fusion-icon (how can one live without it?) and other cause of
some nonsense gnome dependecy.

The only real drive-off was some kde-4 and amule-2.2 hardmasking, but
nothing that would make me rip my own throat, for now.

And for instance, I would apprecciate if you guys made some globalized
jokes, I'm a south american and many of the jokes you tell doesn't make too
many sense to me (a-ha, now you know why my english is that crappy) (emo
mode off)

Anyway thanks everyone. And please, be careful with that axe!

Ax aside, do you have a towel? I have mine. Alan has his. But do you
have yours?

Maybe we should involve Marvin, I think you ought to know I'm feeling

Man, I've got many towels, you woudn't believe.

You know, it's damn fng hot here, sometimes you need to take 2
baths a day (sorry guys, I know water is as precious as women, but if
you come to visit us you'll understand it).

And about Marvin, I'm proud to say that I'm the 42 shirt of my
university soccer team, kinda nerdy for a computer science student
huh?

Welcome to the Fold! Us nerds should get together and put up the end-all
Guide discussions ... should be pretty awesome :D

Hot, Cold, Wet ... it's all the same .. But taking a bath just to make a

  Welcome to the Fold! Us nerds should get together and put up the end-all
  Guide discussions ... should be pretty awesome :D

I'm pretty sure we can think an algorithm for that

Maybe even an O(n).

  Hot, Cold, Wet ... it's all the same .. But taking a bath just to make a
  meaningless and preportedly major decision, now that is a feat wholly on
  it's own worth noting :D

I'd like to say that I believed one day I would run off the bath,
naked, screaming eureka, I found the linear-time solution for the
travelling salesman, but I'm actually more likely to run off, naked
as well, but screaming:  damnit, I forgot my lunch on the fire!
