Silvio You could mask any versions greater than 4.1.0.2 and lesser than 4.1.0.2 I guess, but instead you may want to give app-office/libreoffice-bin a spin which will save significant time when you need to update/downgrade this package. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Re: [gentoo-user] Upgrade only to bigger Version
ok, first make an overlay and copy the ebuild of the version you want to pin there. Than mask everything else. You can find the ebuild in /var/db if it was removed from the tree already. And yes, this ebuild removing sucks - because nobody needs every single LO update... 2013/7/26 Silvio Siefke siefke_lis...@web.de Hello, i have installed Libreoffice 4.1.0.2 and now is update to Version 4.1.0.4 available.

Yes, what you have above means mask every version equal to and greater than app-office/libreoffice-4.1.0.2; therefore, you have masked 4.1.0.2, so you must downgrade. Rather, at the present time use: =app-office/libreoffice-4.1.0.3 That will mask every version equal to or greater than 4.1.0.3 -- Happy Penguin Computers ') 126 Fenco Drive ( \ Tupelo, MS 38801 ^^ supp...@happypenguincomputers.com 662-269-2706 662-205-6424 http://happypenguincomputers.com/ A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
