I've got one for you, since it seems you missed the big discussion last week of 'MOVE != MERGE', and didn't update any instances of the above packages in the tree to reflect the new package names...
In a package that I maintain (sys-apps/readahead-list), I have this DEPEND data (fluff left out): DEPEND="virtual/os-headers !=sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1*" This is because I found that the linux26-headers-2.6.8.1 did NOT work (I filed bug #86178 about it, it's another manifestation of bug #83224). However, linux-headers-2.6.8.1* do seem to to work perfectly fine, as do linux-headers-2.6.11. This is going to cause lots of pains for users that want to have the package. Your merge of the two trees above is non-ideal, as the ebuilds that had matching version numbers don't seem to have identical ebuilds, so what the user actually has is dependant on what the package was called when it was installed. -- Robin Hugh Johnson E-Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home Page : http://www.orbis-terrarum.net/?l=people.robbat2 ICQ# : 30269588 or 41961639 GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85
