Is it that Paludis installs a newer SLOT even if a reverse

explicitly requests another SLOT? Sounds like a bug to me.
No, it's that if a user requests a complete resolution, Paludis
installs the newest version of things that it can. Extensive
consultation with users has shown that this is a good behaviour,
except
in the small number of situations that have recently arisen where
people are doing weird things with versions and slots.
It surprises me that this behavior is normally desirable for packages
where all dependencies (including any in the world set or the like)
are slotted.
Think || ( a:3 a:2 ).
I would say this is not possible with gtk+
To build a gtk+3 app, you need gtk+3 based libs only, same for gtk+2.
Mixing will not work because of symbols conflict iirc.
Anyway, I think that we got off track on the basics of the problem. The
problem is that you cannot have two ebuilds of the same ${CAT}/${PN}
with the same version simply because the files would have the same name.
Adding a new property or whatever does not solve this problem unless we
propose a way of naming such ebuilds to start with, right ?

[gentoo-dev] euscan GSoC project - requesting feedback
Hi everybody! I'm working on a GSoC project for enhancing Euscan (http://euscan.iksaif.net/). Euscan allows to check if a given package/ebuild has new upstream versions or not. It uses different heuristic to scan upstream and grab new versions and related urls. Euscan has a web interface for surfing data but for now is only possible to see the scan results per package/category/herd/maintainers/overlay. We're working now on the possibility to register and provide a cool dashboard for maintainers, so that they can easily keep an eye on the upstream versions of the packages they maintain. The main question is: what would you like to have on this dashboard? Currently (in the development version) there's the possibility to login and watch/unwatch packages/categories/herds/... and see the watched stuff in the account dashboard. We're planning on implementing a weekly(?) custom newsletter based on the packages you're watching, which features would you like? The project repo for the GSoC is here: https://github.com/volpino/euscan Thanks! -- f.

Using the dbus-glib depedency on glib:2 as an example [1], the dbus-glib dependency will be expressed with an atom such as dev-libs/glib:2:= and the package manager will translate that atom to dev-libs/glib:2:=2.32 at build time. So, ':' is always used to distinguish SLOT deps, and ':=' is always used to distinguish ABI_SLOT deps. Is that syntax good? Here's a nicer syntax: no ABI_SLOT variable, and SLOT=2/2.32. Then you can do explicit :2/2.32 dependencies if you like, or :2 (which would match SLOT=2 or SLOT=2/anything), or :2= (which gets rewritten to :2/2.32=) or :2*. If an ebuild does SLOT=2, it's treated as 2/2. Yes, I prefer your syntax. In portage-2.1.11.1 and 2.2.0_alpha112 I’ve added support for EAPI “4-slot-abi”: http://blogs.gentoo.org/zmedico/2012/06/23/automatic-rebuilds-with-experimental-eapi-4-slot-abi/ Does anyone have a fork of the tree that's being converted to test this new functionality? If so I'd like to sign up. That would be nice to have, but I haven't heard of anyone doing it yet. Well, I am now. If anyone wants to test, i'm going to make an attempt to keep the following overlay in sync with the main tree within a 24-hour delay (excluding weekends). git://git.overlays.gentoo.org/dev/axs.git FYI, all the work subslotting the perl stuff doesn't work yet, so it's probably best to wait a few days before trying it out. Sorry, no means of bug reporting on any of this yet (ie, don't file on b.g.o about it), but i'm in #-dev on freenode most weekdays. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iF4EAREIAAYFAk/rYTgACgkQ2ugaI38ACPAOvwD/WBqDNCnCJLZw+2302SJOZzO4 cDYOcr3nNk5JeMVz1YAA/jrllZuqcl2skF0WBf4ku8Jb8dsTucddqB3SarxSBB25 =Efzw -END PGP SIGNATURE-

And what problems is that causing for you? The problem is that there's no way of knowing that -r300 is not a newer version than -r200 It's actually not though, is it? I think -r300 is simply the same thing as -r200 except that it uses gtk3 instead of gtk2.
