Brandon, you are really keeping me busy. ;^) Anyhow, what you quote in the example is not what should be in the package.mask. What *I* put into the package.mask is the following: ~media-sound/alsa-utils-0.9.0.1_beta10 ~media-libs/alsa-lib-0.9.0.1_beta10 ~media-libs/alsa-oss-0.9.0.1_beta10 Where did you get the version with the asterisks from? The version with the stars came from drobbins I believe... # NOTE: don't use ~ deps in package masks because they break 1.8.8 portage and aren't # correct anyway -- drobbins, 02 May 2002 my point was just that we don't seem to need stars or ~s... I'm kinda wondering why the version with the stars DOESN'T work on my system... Oh! I was unaware of that. Drobbins: the asterisks in package.mask don't seem to work for me either (portage 1.9.6). I'm changing the mask to use "=", as suggested by Brandon. Any comments? Also, I wonder why tilde is incorrect in the package.mask file? |
