 Excluding packages in emerge world? Time for my "emerge -uDv world" but when I use -p first I see there are packages this time around that I don't want to emerge/install. After everything is synced with the servers, how do I stop emerge from emerging a packag, ie; this/pack/sucks-1.0 ? Is it something like PORTAGE_EXCLUDE="this/pack/sucks-1.0" emerge -uDv world (this does not work) Tried googling and the gentoo wiki, but couldn't find it. TIA, David      |

Create a new file, /etc/portage/package.mask Then add the packages you don't want installed in there. Example: =net-nds/bind-9.3.2* >net-nds/bind-tools-9.2.6 www-client/mozilla This will block the specific (=) version of net-nds/bind from installing, as well as all versions of net-nds/bind-tools greater than (>) 9.2.6, as well as any version of www-client/mozilla.

You can also remove packages from the /var/lib/portage/world this way a package won't be part of "emerge -uDv world" until a program thats in /var/lib/portage/world requires a newer version due dependency. Masking can cause problems if you have a program depending on the program you don't want to emerge, which will in the end lead to that the "emerge -uDv world" will fail. -- //Aho |
