I tried that a while ago. The problem is that then portage believe |
19 |
those packages aren't on my stable system and says that I must merge an |
20 |
unstable package. |

Specifically excluding the buggy (old) version of webkit-gtk, portage |
23 |
wants me to merge a newish (testing) version of gnucash that uses a |
24 |
solid new version of webkit-gtk. I have the new version of webkit-gtk, |
25 |
but really want to delay installing the testing gnucash. |
