emerge -u world with native language for openoffice


I just installed openoffice-1.1.3 in Gentoo 2004.3 with:
LANGUAGE=SWED emerge openoffice

And now I want to 'emerge --update --deep world' and it starts installing openoffice-1.1.4 in english.

To my question: How do I tell emerge to use the latest stable swedish version of openoffice when updating. Right now the latest swedish version of openoffice is 1.1.3 so I want to leave it alone when updating world untill a newer version arrives.

Thanks

Thanks

Thanks... That solves it for now... But if I use:

=app-office/openoffice-1.1.4
or
>=app-office/openoffice-1.1.4

in: /etc/portage/package.mask

...it will never install any potential new releases of the swedish version of openoffice...
