Bug 103927 – dev-java/jdbc3-postgresql should have same version as postgresql or higher

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Martin Nowack 2005-08-27 09:07:17 UTC]

jdbc3-postgresql should have the same version-number as postgresql or even    
higher. As developers said in   
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html#serverselection.   
So could you mask older postgresql-ebuilds by dependencies?  
An other problem is the jdk for jdbc3 this should be 1.4 or higher. This is  
correct for the 7.3 ebuild but higher ones have ">=virtual/jdk-1.3" as  
dependencies.  
  
Thanks for your help.

not adding postgresql as it not a dep
