has_version only returns 0 or 1 depending whether the package is installed or
not, so it's useless in this case.  best_version would be a better alternative,
however that alone won't solve the problem.

Read about best_version in the ebuild(5) manual page.  After you're done with
that, read about the versionator eclass in the versionator.eclass(5) manual
page (may have to emerge portage-manpages).  You'll probably have to use a
combination of both to do what you're trying to achieve.
