It seems that it may not have been implemented that way . Or am I expecting the wrong things when I read that logic and expect that: emerge --ignore-default-opts -vaO =dev-lang/perl-5.022.0 emerge --ignore-default-opts -vaO =dev-lang/perl-5.0220.0 Should both match dev-lang/perl-5.22.0 ? -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNL
