Hello I have this entry in /etc/portage/package.keywords media-video/vlc ~x86
It resuleted in a stable version of vlc to be installed: Latest version installed: 0.8.2-r2 However, the portage want to upgrade to a newer version: [ebuild U ] media-video/vlc-0.8.4-r1 [0.8.2-r2] Since vlc-08.4-r1 Does not install correctly on my other systems (have not drilled down into the failures yet) I want maintain version vlc-0.8.2-r2 until the other systems are happy with the newer version. I've tried many varitions of modification to the files in the /etc/portage dir, but nothing seems to freeze this version of vlc from upgrade proposed by 'emerge -uDp world'. In the /etc/portage/package.unmask, I even tried this: =media-video/vlc-0.8.2-r2 Syntax to freeze this version is most appreciated, as I want to indefinatly keep this version on a particular system until the other newer versions of vlc are stable for the features I need. Ideas? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
