4 Hi all, I have a question about portage behaviour:
5
6 I have a package built in a certain version in /usr/portage/package but
7 this version is not in portage tree (no ebuild for it). If I do a
8 "emerge -kuav world" it takes this package but if I do a "emerge -uav
9 world" it does not. Is this a normal behaviour? Shouldn't portage first
10 check if there is an ebuild for it before installing the package?
11
12 Regards,
13 Stephane
