I create package.unmask and add this line to it (trying to prevent downgrade of pan): >=net-news/pan-0.14.0 and then I do: # emerge -Duvlp world which yields: These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done! [ebuild UD] net-news/pan-0.13.4 [0.14.0] +spell I've tried putting package.unmask in /usr/portage/profiles, /etc/portage, and /etc/portage/profiles; but I always get the same (undesired) results. How does package.unmask work? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
