The same happens with ant and ant-tasks.

Now it works in the case of libdvb and linuxtv-dvb-headers.
But with ant it has a strange behaviour:

localhost ~ # equery depends ant-core-1.6.5*
[ Searching for packages depending on ant-core-1.6.5*... ]
dev-java/ant-1.6.5
dev-java/ant-tasks-1.6.5

localhost ~ # equery depends ant-core-1.6.5
[ Searching for packages depending on ant-core-1.6.5... ]
dev-java/log4j-1.2.13
localhost ~ # 

localhost ~ # equery depends ant-core
[ Searching for packages depending on ant-core... ]
dev-util/eclipse-sdk-3.1.2
dev-java/log4j-1.2.13
dev-java/jdbc-mysql-3.1.12
dev-java/junit-3.8.1-r1
localhost ~ #

And the same behaviour with ant-taks.
I think this is related to bug #114432.

Depgraph on ant matches ant-core and ant-tasks.

I took a look at the code and found the bug:

When equery is checking the ant's dependencies it calls
gentoolkit.split_package_name('ant-core-1.6.5*') but this function returns
ant-core-1.6.5* as the package name with the version field empty. This happens
because the function ververify from /usr/lib/portage/pym/portage_versions.py
(l.7) uses the next regex:

ver_regexp =
re.compile("^(cvs\\.)?(\\d+)((\\.\\d+)*)([a-z]?)((_(pre|p|beta|alpha|rc)\\d*)*)(-r(\\d+))?$")

and it does not consider version numbers finishing in '*'.

same proble with dev-libs/nss

Fix for the depends command is in subversion rev 333.  I will fix the depgraph
command next.

Example output:
equery depends =ant-core-1.6.5*
[ Searching for packages depending on =ant-core-1.6.5*... ]
dev-java/bcprov-1.31-r2 (dev-java/ant-core)
dev-java/commons-cli-1.0-r5 (>=dev-java/ant-core-1.6.2)
dev-java/commons-lang-2.0-r2 (>=dev-java/ant-core-1.4)

dev-java/swt-3.2.1 (dev-java/ant-core)
net-p2p/azureus-2.5.0.0-r3 (>=dev-java/ant-core-1.6.2)

This is defintely fixed in gentoolkit-0.2.4_rc2
