# 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 1.4 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. # SPARC64 Profile # Alsa is not for Sparc #!media-libs/alsa-lib #!media-libs/alsa-oss #!media-plugins/alsa-xmms #!media-plugins/xmms-aalsa #!media-sound/alsa-driver #!media-sound/alsa-patch-bay #!media-sound/alsa-tools #!media-sound/alsa-utils #!media-sound/alsamixergui #!media-sound/alsaplayer #!x11-plugins/wmmixer-alsa # These don't make sense on sparc !sys-devel/bin86 !sys-apps/lilo !sys-apps/grub # Get a decent editor - BROKEN !app-editors/levee # sparc64 specfic pkgs *sys-apps/sparc-utils *virtual/bootloader *dev-util/dialog *sys-devel/egcs64-sparc # default-sparc-1.4 pkgs *>=sys-apps/baselayout-1.8.5.5 *>=sys-apps/portage-2.0.45-r2 *>=sys-devel/binutils-2.13.90.0.16 *<=sys-devel/gcc-3.2.3-r2 *>=sys-libs/glibc-2.3.1-r2 <=sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.19-r1 >=sys-apps/sysklogd-1.4.1 *dev-lang/python >=x11-base/xfree-4.2.1 *app-shells/sash *dev-lang/perl *virtual/editor *net-ftp/ftp *net-misc/dhcpcd *net-misc/iputils *net-misc/rsync *net-misc/wget *app-shells/bash *sys-apps/bzip2 *sys-apps/kbd *sys-apps/cpio *sys-apps/coreutils *sys-apps/debianutils *sys-apps/diffutils *sys-fs/e2fsprogs *sys-apps/ed *sys-apps/fbset *sys-apps/file *sys-apps/findutils *sys-apps/slocate *sys-apps/gawk *sys-apps/grep *sys-apps/groff *sys-apps/gzip *sys-apps/hdparm *sys-apps/less *sys-apps/man *sys-apps/man-pages *sys-apps/modutils *sys-apps/net-tools *sys-apps/procps *sys-apps/psmisc *sys-apps/sed *sys-apps/setserial *=sys-apps/texinfo-4.2-r1 *sys-apps/util-linux *sys-apps/which *sys-devel/autoconf *>=sys-devel/automake-1.6.1-r5 *sys-devel/bc *sys-devel/bison *sys-devel/flex *sys-devel/gettext *>=sys-devel/libtool-1.4.1-r4 *sys-devel/m4 *sys-devel/make *sys-devel/patch *sys-libs/cracklib *=sys-libs/ncurses-5.2.20020511-r3 *>=sys-libs/pam-0.75-r10 *sys-libs/pwdb *sys-libs/readline *sys-libs/slang *sys-libs/zlib *net-misc/openssh *sys-fs/devfsd *sys-devel/sparc32 <=app-portage/portagemaster-0.1.5 # masked openldap-2.1 until db-4.1 is a go
