I want to revert to the stable version of a specific package

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64".
For that I have put in /etc/portage/package.keywords:
sys-fs/cryptsetup amd64
and then I run
emerge -1 =sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.0.6-r2
Is that the way I should go?
Because I tried it, but when I run
emerge -DNu world
it still wants to upgrade to sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.1.0.
It is not possible to set keyword "arch" for specific packages only
"~arch". To prevent upgrade you have to mask the never version via
/etc/portage/package.mask
echo "~sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.1.0">>/etc/portage/package.mask
should do the trick. The ~ instead of = masks minor revisions of that
version (for example sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.1.0-r1) too
It is possible and I posted how to do it ;) You can unset keywords just
like you can unset USE flags.
