So maybe new? But it also raises another question. The emacs I wanted to keep is an older version than the newest in portage. So do I enter that version? That is, will portage just ignore the fact that there is a newer version. Or does it mean I need to put the newest version number in /etc/portage/profile/package.provided even though that isn't what I have? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
