[gentoo-user] package.provided syntax for overlay

[Mick]

Hi All,

Given sddm is not working for my setup, as per bug #608690, I thought of 
trying entrance from the bar overlay.  It wants to pull in enlightenment, 
which I have already installed from the main tree and would like to keep it as 
such:

# emerge -uaDv entrance

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

So I tried in /etc/portage/package.provided any combination of these:

x11-wm/enlightenment-9999:0.17/9999::bar

=x11-wm/enlightenment-9999:0.17

x11-wm/enlightenment-9999

None of which can stop portage dragging in 'x11-
wm/enlightenment-9999:0.17/9999::bar'.  What is the correct syntax to block 
this version of enlightenment from emerging?
