[gentoo-dev] Binary package dependencies for sub-slot-less EAPIs

2013-04-12 Thread W. Trevor King
Over on #gentoo-releng and in gentoo-catalyst@ we've been running into binary package dependency problems [1]. Before EAPI-5 and sub-slots, the version of dependency packages is not recorded in the binary package metadata (the Packages file). For example, a binary package for GCC built against
