No. Arguably such a feature (or a variant on it of some kind) would be useful, but it's not something that's particularly easy to do with the current resolver and I'd have to work out exactly what the implications of doing so would be before adding it to the new resolver. > I'm also not entirely sure ignoring those packages is what I want, as > I suspect the newer revisions are required to make other packages in > the repo work, like networkmanager-applet? I suspect what you want to do is mask */*::overlay and then selectively unmask packages that you do specifically want (unmasks override masks). It's not quite as clean, but it's much less potentially weird. -- Ciaran McCreesh
