Subject: [gentoo-dev] Missing feature for
Date: 09 Jun 2003 22:56:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1055192186.14316.10.camel@localhost> (raw)

Hi all,

I'm not sure if gentoo actually lacks this feature, but how can I
permanently accept ebuilds that are marked unstable, _without_ messing
with the original ebuild file and loosing my changes during the next
portage update?

Ie, I've emerged gcc-3.3 and like to give it a try on my Intel P4. But
"emerge -ep system" would downgrade it to 3.2.x first, instead of
leaving it alone. Also, I wouldn't like to accept all unstable packages
in make.conf; I figure it would be more difficult to tell what went
wrong wrong in case of an error if you have all unstable packages (and
not only gcc).

Your feedback is appreciated. Best regards,

-  Christian
