Trying to emerge emacs-24, testing with: |
2 |
|
3 |
emerge -vp =emacs-vcs-24.0.9999 |
4 |
|
5 |
I'm told its masked in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask |
6 |
|
7 |
But when I look there, I see: |
8 |
# Ulrich Mueller <ulm@g.o> (10 Mar 2010) |
9 |
# Emacs live ebuilds. Use at your own risk. |
10 |
~app-editors/emacs-vcs-23.1.9999 |
11 |
~app-editors/emacs-vcs-24.0.9999 |
12 |
~virtual/emacs-24 |
13 |
|
14 |
With no explanation of what the Tilde means. |
15 |
|
16 |
Looking thru man emerge in the MASKED section there is only one mention of |
17 |
tilde and its in relation to notating architecture like ~x86. |
18 |
|
19 |
All Ulrich M. says is `use at your own risk' |
20 |
|
21 |
Ok, fine but first I want to find out what the unexplained tilde |
22 |
means. There are only a handfull of packagew with that notation in the |
23 |
masked file... where do look to find out its meaning? |
24 |
|
25 |
PS- and by the way, there is no mention what so ever of `tilde' in |
26 |
man portage. |
