I am trying to disable portupgrade from trying to upgrade my linux ports
(linux-base and linux-sun-jdk) by adding it to pkgtools.conf but it seems to
not be working.
Is adding the package names to HOLD_PKGS the correct way?
% cat /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf | grep -A3 -B20 'linux'
#
# This is a list of ports you don't want portupgrade(1) to upgrade,
# portversion(1) to suggest upgrading, or pkgdb(1) to fix.
# You can use wildcards ("ports glob" and "pkgname glob").
# -f/--force of each command will force the held status.
#
# To completely hide the existence of a package, put a dummy file
# named "+IGNOREME" in the package directory.
#
# cf. pkg_glob(1), ports_glob(1)
#
# e.g.:
# HOLD_PKGS = [
# 'bsdpan-*',
# 'x11*/XFree86*',
# ]
HOLD_PKGS = [
'bsdpan-*',
'jdk*',
'linux-sun-jdk',
'linux_base'
]
# USE_PKGS: array
% portsdb -fu
[Updating the portsdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/tmp ... - 9037 port
entries found .........1000.........2000.........3000.........
4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000.........9000 .....
done]
% portversion | grep 'linux'
linux-sun-jdk <
linux_base <
Shouldnt portversion be ignoring these ports, or do I have pkgtools.conf
incorrectly setup?
Thanks
Dave
