|
|
Hi,
I would like to convert my box from running with unstable/masked to stable builds.
Currently running Gentoo 1.4 RC1.
The box is running Glibc-2.3.1-r2 now and if I try to emerge the stable system it tries to emerge Glibc-2.2.5-r7. Doing this will corrupt my system, yes I've tried that
Any ideas how I can accomplish this without breaking anything ? |

I'm trying my luck with this command :
emerge -u --deep world
It looks like it will do the trick  |

Try this instead: ebuild /usr/portage/sys-libs/glibc/glibc-2.2.5-r7.ebuild merge (That leaves the current one alone)
Make sure the default libc used is 2.2.5-r7 without breaking everything, and then, emerge portage, binutils and gcc, followed by emerge -e --deep world |
