Notice that I said "_non_-live" and the "<" char in the line. I would |
32 |
use the stanza (as you said) |
33 |
because if 1.4.0 is not stabilized before something like 1.4.1 is added |
34 |
to tree, and 1.4.0 gets |
35 |
deleted, you are facing the same problem all over again. |
36 |
As in, <xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager-9999 with the < means "I want |
37 |
latest non-live version." |
