... which would force to update the nvrec ebuild every time divx4linux |
| 14 |
changes. I wanted to have something like !cat/pkg-ve* - like it should |
| 15 |
work according to the manpage, but it just doesn't. |
| 16 |
I now tried |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
=media-libs/divx4linux-20020418* |
| 19 |
!media-libs/divx4linux-2003* |
| 20 |
(in both DEPEND and RDEPEND) |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
which just makes nvrec downgrade divx4linux before it's installed, but |
| 23 |
does not stop me from upgrading it afterwards (which breaks nvrec). |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Perhaps I should let newer divx4linux block on nvrec as a workaround... |
