I just read this in the developer's guide:
http://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/dependencies/index.html
|~app-misc/foo-1.23| Version 1.23 (or any |1.23-r*|) is required.
I was wondering if this would work in package.keywords, package.mask, etc.
so tried it. It does appear to work...
# eix -e portage
* sys-apps/portage
Available versions: 2.0.51.22-r3 2.0.54-r2 2.1 2.1-r1
2.1.1_pre1-r5 2.1.1_pre2-r2
# echo "~sys-apps/portage-2.1" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
# eix -e portage
* sys-apps/portage
Available versions: 2.0.51.22-r3 2.0.54-r2 [M]2.1 [M]2.1-r1
2.1.1_pre1-r5 2.1.1_pre2-r2
Have fun,
Roy
