I would check overlay setup and also try `emerge =exact-group/exact-package-2.18.whatever` i.e. specify the specific ebuild you wish to emerge? I have used overlays before for xgl and for init-ng but both were a few months ago so please feel free to correct me if I am missing something. PS (to all): 1) Please trim crap out of messages you send to this list: e.g. that junk at the end of previous emails 2) Please don't top post as it makes threads harder to follow 3) Please don't use HTML email if you can help it Cheers, -- djn I do not represent anyone else in emails I send to this list. -- [email protected] mailing list
