After the good input that I received in the "Preventing new versions of
gentoo-sources…" thread, I figured I'd ask this question:
Is there a way to cause ebuild file to limit the version of other
packages, e.g. net-misc/openvswitch's limiting sys-kernel/gentoo-sources

as i read the description, it splits a 4K image into 4 seperate 2K signals for
4 individual 2K displays, i.e. a "Video wall", using 4 2K displays to fake a 4K
display. This does not appear to be what you wanted. You want the same signal
going more than one place without reformatting/division.

I suspect that the splitter only works for a handful of specific

Howdy,
