3. Mezcla de Ramales de Software
Contenido:
3.a. Using One Branch
The Stable Branch
The ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable defines what software branch you use on your
system. It defaults to the stable software branch for your architecture, for
instance x86.
We recommend that you only use the stable branch. However, if you don't care
about stability this much and you want to help out Gentoo by submitting
bugreports to http://bugs.gentoo.org, read on.
The Testing Branch
If you want to use more recent software you can consider using the testing
branch instead. To have Portage use the testing branch, add a ~ in front of your
architecture.
For instance, to select the testing branch for the x86 architecture, edit
/etc/make.conf and set:
Listado de Código 1.1: Setting the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable |
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"
|
If you update your system now, you will find out that lots of packages
will be updated. Mind you though: when you have updated your system to use the
testing branch there is usually no easy way back to the stable, official branch
(except for using backups of course).
3.b. Mixing Stable with Testing
The package.keywords file
You can ask Portage to allow the testing branch for particular packages but use
the stable branch for the rest of the system. To achieve this, add the package
category and name you want to use the testing branch of in
/etc/portage/package.keywords. For instance, to use the testing
branch for gnumeric:
Listado de Código 2.1: /etc/portage/package.keywords setting for gnumeric |
app-office/gnumeric
|
The same can be achieved when you add the correct keyword at the end of the
line, for instance for the x86 architecture:
Listado de Código 2.2: /etc/portage/package.keywords setting for gnumeric, full line |
app-office/gnumeric ~x86
|
Test Particular Versions
If you want to use a specific software version from the testing branch but you
don't want Portage to use the testing branch for subsequent versions, you can
add in the version in the package.keywords file. In this case you
must use the = operator. You can also enter a version range
using the <=, <, > or >= operators.
In any case, if you add version information, you must use an operator. If
you leave out version information, you cannot use an operator.
In the following example we ask Portage to accept gnumeric-1.2.13:
Listado de Código 2.3: Using a particular gnumeric version |
=app-office/gnumeric-1.2.13
|
3.c. Using Masked Packages
The package.unmask file
When a package has been masked by the Gentoo developers and you still want to
use it despite the reason mentioned in the package.mask file
(situated in /usr/portage/profiles by default), add the
exact same line in /etc/portage/package.unmask.
For instance, if =net-mail/hotwayd-0.8 is masked, you can unmask it by
adding the exact same line in the package.unmask file:
Listado de Código 3.1: /etc/portage/package.unmask |
=net-mail/hotwayd-0.8
|
The package.mask file
When you don't want Portage to take a certain package or a specific version of a
package into account you can mask it yourself by adding an appropriate line to
/etc/portage/package.mask.
For instance, if you don't want Portage to install newer kernel sources than
development-sources-2.6.8.1, you add the following line to
package.mask:
Listado de Código 3.2: /etc/portage/package.mask example |
>sys-kernel/development-sources-2.6.8.1
