6 Not really possible since this eselect-opengl version is a dependency
7 for quite a lot of packages like xorg-server, nvidia-drivers and all of
8 their dependencies. The previous working eselect-opengl is not in the
9 portage tree anymore, only an even older version of it.

11 Just edit the two files as suggested in the bug reports. You just need
12 to remember to edit 20opengl again after running `eselect opengl set` or
13 set the file permissions so that it can't be overwritten.
