The problem is it appears you are mixing ~x86 with x86. Perl-5.8.8 isn't x86 yet - but your make.conf indicates that your preference. To do is to stick with one or the other :)
not clear :( I'm using spamassassin ~x86, but spamassassin ~x86 using some perl libs x86. This problem.
i.e spamassassin ~x86 req perl 5.8.8, but some perl libs x86 using only perl 5.8.7
(In reply to comment #4) > i.e spamassassin ~x86 req perl 5.8.8, but some perl libs x86 using only perl > 5.8.7 > This is still a problem of your mixing ~x86 and x86. Your being forced back because while your perl may be ~x86, you have ~arched all of dev-perl, perl-core, and virtual/perl-* - so your being forced back because the stable of some of those only allows for the stable perl. Most of this is probably moot at this point, however, since 5.8.8 is in the process of being stabled.
Is this still relevant, now that 5.8.8-r2 is x86 (and will hopefully be marked stable on all archs soon)?
now fixed (imho). Thanks a lot
