Let's agree on something and avoid > unnecessary changes on bugzilla. Put a space before the colon (or any delimiter you happen to prefer). Both cpv:XYZ and cpv::ABC have a special meaning. If nothing else it improves legibility through the simple application of whitespace. As for the equal sign, portage should really simply support leaving it out and interpret '=' as the default. Functionally there should be no difference between '=a/b-c' and 'a/b-c' anyway, and yet it trips up emerge. jer
