Description Adrian Ratiu 2025-02-03 10:06:32 UTC
Hello

I would like to install the [stable] versions of packages instead of [latest] using crossdev --ex-pkg, for which I have a patch:

https://github.com/gentoo/crossdev/pull/34

Can someone please help make this possible? Thanks

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run crossdev with the --stable flag and --ex-pkg

Actual Results:  
ex-pkgs default to the latest version instead of stable

Expected Results:  
I would expect the stable versions to be picked up

    crossdev: allow --ex-pkg to install stable
    
    At present, --ex-pkg flags always install the [latest] version.
    However, sometimes one may want to install [stable] if required.
