Emerge Gimp

[cl00t]

So far I have used only entropy in sabayon.
If I wanted to emerge media-gfx/gimp-2.6.11-r4 & to stop entropy upgrading it to the development version media-gfx/gimp-2.7.3-r1 when I run equo --upgrade, should I just to:

Code: Select all

mask media-gfx/gimp-2.6.11-r4 --ask


Would this protect gimp & it's dependencies it installs?
Or do I need to do this for all the dependencies independently?

Here is where you can stop entropy to install certain packages:

/etc/entropy/packages/package.mask

The whole stuff and a example given at the end:

I would let entropy install as much dependencies as possible. Good luck !
