"IT changes"?? I'm at a loss here. You mean that YOU keep telling it |

to change? <wink> I think that you missed Daniel Robbins point: |

I'd recommend that people who don't want to have the latest and greatest |

versions of everything (and everything that goes with it), don't use |

When you get it how you like it -- stop. Don't "emerge --update"; don't |

"emerge" new stuff. You've got what you want -- why change it? ;-) |
