When I try to emerge simgear, the configure stage fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge plib-1.4.2-r1 2. emerge simgear Actual Results: checking for plib 1.6.0 or newer... wrong version configure: error: Install plib 1.6.0 or later first... !!! ERROR: dev-libs/simgear-0.3.1 failed. !!! Function econf, Line 334, Exitcode 1 !!! econf failed Expected Results: The emerge should succeed. This looks like a simple problem, and not high priority, (if I update plib it works). It's just an increase of the version required for plib.
changed in portage. nice catch :)
