I recently used it to move a machine from testing to stable. The one |
| 17 |
caveat is that sometimes the testing version your have installed, and in |
| 18 |
package.accept_keywords, is removed from the tree so portage wants to |
| 19 |
downgrade to the latest stable version. You have the choice of letting |
| 20 |
this happen or unmasking a later testing version. |
