Subject: [gentoo-dev] keep a gen 2013 snapshot on mirrors
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:58:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5283CBD3.1010309@gmail.com> (raw)


long story short
having a  portage-20130126.tar.bz2 snapshot (before the EAPI 5 switch)
greatly simplified the upgrade of an old server on a client.

Why not keep a copy on the servers? I mean
http://distfiles.gentoo.org/snapshots/

thanks,
Francesco Riosa
