Correction: |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
[I] app-office/libreoffice |
| 65 |
Available versions: 4.0.4.2 **4.0.9999 (~)4.1.0.4 **4.1.9999 **9999-r2 |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
You've masked 4.1.0.2, but there is not such version in portage. |
| 68 |
4.1.0.4 is unstable, you run stable |
| 69 |
portage is doing the only thing it can do to give you a working |
| 70 |
libreoffice, which is emerge 4.0.4.2 |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
Do this: |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
in /var/db/pkg you will find a copy of the ebuild for the current |
| 76 |
*installed* version - 4.1.0.2. |
| 77 |
Copy that to a local overlay and mask all versions smaller and greater |
| 78 |
than that in package.mask. |
| 79 |
Portage will then keep the current version but you MUST keep a copy of |
| 80 |
the ebuild somewhere else |
| 81 |
When you someday want to upgrade libreoffice, undo the maskings. |
