Hi All- I needed to fill out a PDF form today, so I figured I'd try the new Adobe Acrobat Reader 7. I did the following:
`ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pv acroread` And subsequently emerged the package without the -pv. All went well, and acroread seems to work happily enough on my box. I'm impressed with the software, I just wish it was open-source. So now I'd like to do an `emerge -pvuD world` to clear up a few GLSAs that have come across in the last few days. Alas, this is among the output: [ebuild UD] app-text/acroread-5.10 [7.0] -cjk -noplugin 9,068 kB `man emerge` explains well enough why it's trying to downgrade acroread. The only place I can find some semblance of a recommendation to prevent this behavior is here: http://users.dslextreme.com/~craig.lawson/linux_notes/gentoo_portage.html Where the author suggests modifying /var/lib/portage/world so that the package reads: >=app-text/acroread-7.0 But doing this doesn't change emerge's behavior when doing an `emerge -pvuD world`. It still tries to downgrade acroread. ??? Thanks, Dave -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
