Following Sven Knispel's instructions
(http://cri.ch/linux/docs/sk0017.html), today I recompiled freetype with
the bytecode interpreter turned on, only to be told by Puplet that new
freetype packages were available, packages which turned out to be the
very ones I'd just recompiled (freetype-2.2.1-16.fc6,
freetype-devel-2.2.1-16.fc6).
Is there a way of flagging a particular version of a package such that
yum will prompt for an update only when a later iteration eventually
arrives?
That would be the norm for rpm/yum/pup.
If you bumped your internal spec file before compile, then yours would
be newer. However, doesn't work for version side {ie 2.2.2} and it is
sometimes achieved with use of epoch, but I think then that epoch would
always appear higher. Asking in fedora-extras list you would find heaps
of packagers with the know'.
