Currently the first get picked. We might want to change that to preferring packages that do allready have an installed version above ones that don't.

Re: [gentoo-dev] gcc-3.3.5.20050110-r1 for stable
One thing... Maybe its just me... or maybe they are in no way related, but I seem to have heard of a lot more 'libtool' problems when using a snapshot version instead of a regularly numbered version, is there a reason?

Uh, there isn't any such thing. If you mean this: Mon Mar 21 14:05:58 2005 sys-devel/gcc-3.3.5.20050130-r1 it's been stable on sparc for 2.5 weeks.

Re: [gentoo-dev] make.profile symlink now points nowhere (was default-x86-1.4)
Question here - I made the link to the 2005.0 profile on (NOT 2005.0/2.4) a system that is 2.6.11 and has been on 2.6 for months. Tonight emerge -uD system -p wants to upgrade me to a 2.4 kernel!!! Well, portage this is a 2.6.x system - not 2.4 - duh! From what I found in the mail list archives and forums noone has really given a solution. Some say what problem, others give reasons for it but the fact remains - why on a 2.6 system that has happily been running 2.6 for months does this new profile want to give me a 2.4 kernel. I did follow one suggest and symlink to default-linux/x86 directory but I'm afraid that will break something so I went back to 2004.0 for the symlink. And I am at portage 2.0.51.19 so that's good. In short - what do we have to do to upgrade to a current profile on 2.6 machines and get 2.6 gentoo-source updates, not 2.4. Thanks.
