I was told that this issue has been fixed in new version of rrd tool
rrdtool 1.2.23-r1 but this one isnt in portage..
It's in portage. I'm guessing you either haven't synced in awhile, or
you aren't seeing it as you are running stable arch (amd64 in this case)
and the package in question isn't stabilized yet, tho it's keyworded
~arch (unstable, ~amd64 in our case). Assuming you've synced, it's
almost
certainly the latter. You'll need to add the package to your
package.keywords file as appropriate. See the portage documentation in
the Gentoo handbook (installation is just one section of several,
you know, and there's a LOT of stuff in the other sections, particularly
the working with Gentoo and working with Portage sections, that make a
Gentoo sysadmin's job FAR easier than it'd be otherwise) and portage
and emerge manpages.
There's a script, earch, that I picked up on the dev list some time ago,
that lists the versions of a package and the latest stable and ~arch
versions for each arch. Here's what it reports for rrdtool:
$earch rrdtool
rrdtool-1.0.49[0]:
rrdtool-1.2.15-r3[0]: alpha amd64 arm hppa ia64 mips ppc ppc64 sh sparc
x86
rrdtool-1.2.19[0]:
rrdtool-1.2.23[0]:
rrdtool-1.2.23-r1[0]: ~alpha ~amd64 ~arm ~hppa ~ia64 ~mips ~ppc ~ppc64
~sh ~sparc ~x86
So rrdtool-1.2.23-r1 is keyworded ~amd64, while 1.2.15-r3 is the
latest stable.
earch looks like good candidate for gentoolkit
Thanks i look into it
