Yeah, a new numbered release deserves it's own ebuild, even if it has to linger in package.mask. Make sure it's been 2-3 days after the release and then file a version bump bug. Please report if "simply renaming" the existing ebuild works and/or what you had to change to get a clean compile/install.
Simple renaming worked on my "~x86" system. I haven't noticed nothing suspicious so far.
If you follow Wesnoth closely, but aren't part of upstream, you might consider becoming a/the gentoo package maintainer for it. IIRC, IMHO, the packaging for Wesnoth could use a little "love".
I agree that Wesnoth woul need more "love", but I don't qualify as official maintainer of Wesnoth package simply because I have never looked into the code. But if "let's try to rename ebuild and see what happens when the new version is released", I'll be glad to help by sending reports to this list. Thanks, Marko -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
