kismet-2004.10.1 wants to downgrade ethereal

porkoo ~ # emerge kismet -va

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Yes, this is a known problem.

It has to do with portage not liking dynamic SRC_URIs.

------- Comment #2 From Henrik Brix Andersen 2004-12-14 08:17:34 0000 -------
We need to come up with a solution to this...

------- Comment #3 From Eldad Zack (RETIRED) 2004-12-18 05:28:02 0000 -------
brix, kismet can't depend on a specific version of ethereal, as it is not
slotted. 

------- Comment #4 From Henrik Brix Andersen 2004-12-19 01:17:05 0000 -------
Any suggestion to how we tackle this problem?

------- Comment #5 From Henrik Brix Andersen 2004-12-27 08:57:01 0000 -------
net-wireless/kismet now depends on >=net-analyzer/ethereal-${ETHEREAL_VERSION}
instead of =net-analyzer/ethereal-${ETHEREAL_VERSION}.

Closing as FIXED InCVS.
