8 No, this is exactly the wrong way around. Portage will not install
9 anything you put into package.mask, so you'll want to mask everything >= 3:

11 >=app-shells/bash-3

13 The problem with the solution offered by Dominik is that the next

15 On the other hand, if you add the mask line and forget about it, your
16 system will be stuck with 2 forever.
