From c5fbe4f306451b62c6f645d8d8679860e2d1a64e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zac Medico Date: Mon, 8 Aug 2011 22:35:38 -0700 Subject: Remove "profile" mask support as per PMS 5.2.7. Since this is considered a "legacy" feature by PMS 5.2.7, there shouldn't be any need to support it anymore. Profiles can use package.mask to get similar results, and package.mask additionally allows for comments which are conveniently displayed by emerge. This will fix bug #377907. --- man/portage.5 | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'man') diff --git a/man/portage.5 b/man/portage.5 index b2b0eb12c..b783f6239 100644 --- a/man/portage.5 +++ b/man/portage.5 @@ -280,6 +280,7 @@ Provides the list of packages that compose the special \fIsystem\fR set. \- comments begin with # (no inline comments) \- one DEPEND atom per line \- packages to be added to the system set begin with a * +\- atoms without * only appear for legacy reasons .fi .I Note: In a cascading profile setup, you can remove packages in children -- cgit v1.2.3-1-g7c22
