I think that now I understand what you tried to tell me. ;-) |

# /etc/portage/profile/package.provided (1) |

alone will not suffice, additionally |

# /etc/portage/profile/virtuals (2) |

is required to make sure that emerge does not install any of the |
16 |
other "virtual MTA" packages. |

What I still don't know if the setting (1) prevents future Versions |
19 |
of ssmtp, say ssmtp-2.72, from being installed. Put in other words, |
20 |
are packages in package.provided ever updated by "emerge --update |
21 |
--deep world"? As I wrote before I don't know if I should add them |
22 |
to package.mask aswell to prevent updates, and if the absolute path |
23 |
is /etc/portage/profile/package.mask or /etc/portage/package.mask? |
