1 Hi folks,
2
3 it seems ivtv needs a newer kernel than the one I am currently using; it
4 depends on a configuration symbol in the kernel that is not present in mine.
5 Since I don't have the time right now to go through a kernel configuration, I
6 want to skip ivtv.
7
8 emerge --update --skipfirst world
9
10 Unfortunately, that skips ivtv *and* the next package which is OpenOffice.
11
12 I know I can temporarely unmerge ivtv but my question is: Is --skipfirst
13 broken?
