Description Thomas Deutschmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-09-24 00:03:10 UTC
sys-libs/ncurses-6.0 update changed soname of libncursesw; this triggered a @preserved-libs event for sys-apps/less.

Please consider adding a slot operator on the sys-libs/ncurses atom in the next revbump of sys-apps/less so that an update of sys-libs/ncurses will trigger a rebuild of sys-apps/less when necessary.

The following diff should do the magic:

Thanks!
