I feel I've become experienced with portage, but I couldn't figure this out nor find an answer. Essentially, portage is disobeying my instructions not to upgrade certain things. I basically run an ~x86 system, with the crucial packages being stable x86. With the update to portage 2.0.50-r1 (gentoolkit 0.2.0_pre6) I decided to make use of package.keywords. I changed make.conf to ~x86, and put my crucial packages into package.keywords as x86. However, when I emerge system, it wants to install the unstable versions of the things I listed in package.keywords. For example:
-from package.keywords: sys-devel/bin86 x86 -but the output from emerge -pv system: [ebuild U ] sys-devel/bin86-0.16.13 [0.16.0] 143 kB Even specifying ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" for the emerge changes nothing. Is this a syntax error somewhere, or am I misinterpreting the use of package.keywords? Thanks for any help, Tom -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
