1 Hi guys!
2
3 First post in the list for me. It s probably a dumb question but i
4 could not figure out any answer.
5 On a gentoo 2005.1 system i am running a set of scripts which rely on
6 specific binary tools like (ecasound and mjpegtools).
7 When i got all those scripts stabilized, i really wanted to keep
8 exactly same version of binaries. After installing a new server, i got
9 the surprise not being able to use ecasound-2.3.3, the only version
10 available is the 2.4.3.
11 So my questions are :
12 1 Is there a way for me to be able to download somehow version 2.3.3
13 2 If not, anyone could tell me how long packages are kept in the
14 repository and what would be the process if i really need to stick with
15 one version which is no longer there?
