I've noticed that libgsf has "jumping" versions. That is one week
it's 1.12.0 another 1.10.0 and it swings from one to another. Does
anybody know what might trigger this behavior?
This is because gnumeric REQUIRES =1.10.0... and when you do a -uD it
will be upgraded.
You should keep using -uNp instead of -uDNp ;)
I wouldn't throw away -uDNp just because of this.
On my system there are only two packages that depend on libgsf:
gnumeric =gnome-extra/libgsf-1.10*
librsvg >=gnome-extra/libgsf-1.6
So librsvg can survive with an libgsf version as old as 1.6.
My solution has been adding these lines to /etc/portage/package.mask:
=gnome-extra/libgsf-1.12.0
=gnome-extra/libgsf-1.12.1
Ofcourse I could also use >=gnome-extra/libgsf-1.12.0, but I prefer to be
notified if there is a new version available.
