19 Since you are a newbie I don't recommend you to install latest GCC
20 version. If something breaks later, you'll be *ucked. I would install
21 all STABLE versions. But if you want to install a certain version of an
22 app, your syntax may be:
23
24 emerge =category/what-ever-package-1.5.6
25
26 You can use your own tar.gz and your own tar.bz2 but that needs a
27 portage overlay (and you should create your own ebuilds) and that should
28 need an "ebuild
29 /usr/local/portage/category/whatever/whatever-0.5.3.ebuild digest". If
30 you're a newbie I don't recommend a portage overlay right now neither.
31 You should get convinced with portage, and when you understand it pretty
32 well... go with your overlay.

34 Bye,
