No, you're not missing something. The OP seems to be non-English-first- language and the question is poorly worded to a native speaker. He's saying that emerge overwrites the previous installed version when it rebuilds a package and he wants to keep it. The solution to that is binpkgs. You are talking about what happens to binpkg you already have, he is asking how to get binpkgs in the first place > > so you can still emerge -K old-apps/package > > for an example, in my /usr/portage/packages/app-shells on my laptop i have > # ls -lah > total 6.8M > drwx------ 2 root root 4.0K Oct 14 21:02 . > drwx------ 76 root root 4.0K Nov 17 10:51 .. > -rw------- 1 root root 1.2M Sep 5 10:43 bash-4.2_p45.tbz2 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.2M Sep 26 20:52 bash-4.2_p48-r1.tbz2 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.2M Oct 1 14:33 bash-4.2_p50.tbz2 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.2M Oct 2 22:22 bash-4.2_p51.tbz2 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.2M Oct 6 10:09 bash-4.2_p52.tbz2 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.2M Oct 9 23:50 bash-4.2_p53.tbz2 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.4K Oct 14 21:02 push-1.6.tbz2 > > > > -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckinnon@gmail.com
