Xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 is now stable on x86.
I see the following in the ebuild
RDEPEND="hal? ( sys-apps/hal )
tslib? ( >=x11-libs/tslib-1.0 x11-proto/xcalibrateproto )
dev-libs/openssl
>=x11-libs/libXfont-1.4.0
I believe this says that libXfont >= 1.4.0 must be present.
But eix -e libXfont reports
[I] x11-libs/libXfont
Available versions: 1.3.1-r1 1.3.4 ~1.4.0 {debug ipv6}
Installed versions: 1.3.4(09:46:47 10/05/09)(ipv6 -debug)
Homepage: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/
Description: X.Org Xfont library
which asserts that no version >=1.4.0 is stable.
I have resynced since I first noticed this and it is still the case.
Naturally this prevents my emerge ... world
from completing.
I can certainly add libXfont to /etc/portage/package.keywords, but I
find it strange that a stable package (xorg-server) requires a testing
version of another package (libXfont).
Advice on how to proceed would be appreciated.
thanks,
allan
