# IMPORTANT: In order to parse this new format, you need Portage 1.6 or later! # OK; you're staring at this file and you have no idea what these stars are # for. Here's the scoop. An initial "*" marks a package that is part of the # official "base" system profile. If there's a "*", then "emerge system" will # use the line in its calculations of what "should" be installed for this # profile. Lines without a "*" prefix will be ignored for profile # calculations. # Now, this is new: *all* lines (star or no star) will be used as a special # package *inclusion* mask. For example, the line *=sys-devel/gcc-2.95.3-r1 # will cause Portage to totally ignore all gcc ebuilds other than # gcc-2.95.3-r1. >=, <=, <, > and ~ can be used to offer a bit more # flexibility. For example, >=sys-libs/glibc-2.2.4 will cause emerge to ignore # all glibc ebuilds with a version less than 2.2.4. This allows us to have # profile-specific package.mask settings. *All* lines are used for this # masking process, whether they are prefixed with a * or not. And if a generic # dep is used, like "sys-apps/foo", then all versions of foo are included. If # there is no entry, then all versions of an app are included. The key thing # to note is that this file does not need to end up being an exhaustive list # of portage packages; just the ones critical to this profile. # So, what happens to /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask? It's still around, # and still useful. But it should mainly be used for broken ebuilds only. # package.mask continues to function as normal, masking out ebuilds from *all* # system profiles. # Which to use? Use the profile-specific stuff to "lock down" specific # versions of ebuilds. Gentoo Linux 1.0_rc6 uses certain known-compatible # versions of binutils, gcc and glibc, so we lock them down here. This # prevents the user from shooting himself/herself in the foot by installing a # wacky version. #does not build with gcc-2.x <media-video/transcode-0.6.12 sys-fs/ntfsprogs <app-arch/rar-3.2.0 <dev-util/ddd-3.3.6 <net-irc/lostirc-0.3.0 *>=sys-apps/baselayout-1.7.3 *>=sys-apps/portage-1.8.9_pre25 *>=sys-devel/binutils-2.13.90.0.4 *=sys-devel/gcc-2.95.3-r8 *~sys-libs/glibc-2.2.5 virtual/os-headers >=sys-apps/sysklogd-1.4.1 *dev-lang/python >=x11-base/xfree-4.1.0-r2 # sash - static shell for system recovery *app-shells/sash dev-lang/perl *virtual/editor *net-misc/dhcpcd *net-misc/netkit-telnetd *net-misc/rsync *net-misc/wget *app-shells/bash *app-arch/bzip2 *sys-apps/kbd *app-arch/cpio *sys-apps/debianutils *sys-apps/diffutils *sys-fs/e2fsprogs *sys-apps/ed *sys-apps/fbset *sys-apps/file *sys-apps/coreutils *sys-apps/findutils *sys-apps/slocate *sys-apps/gawk *sys-apps/grep *sys-apps/groff *app-arch/gzip *sys-apps/hdparm *sys-apps/less *sys-apps/man *sys-apps/man-pages *virtual/modutils *sys-apps/net-tools *sys-apps/procps *sys-apps/psmisc *sys-apps/raidtools *sys-fs/reiserfsprogs *sys-apps/sed *sys-apps/setserial *<sys-apps/shadow-5 *sys-apps/pam-login *app-arch/sharutils *app-arch/tar #only needed by xinetd, and it's out.
