from guide # emerge -av ">mysql-5.0" These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies !!! The short ebuild name ">mysql-5.0" is ambiguous. Please specify !!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead: dev-db/mysql virtual/mysql
Yeah, the mysql team just added the virtual/mysql category to the tree and did some other stuff with it, so it's a good thing you caught this. Added the full dev-db/mysql category/package name. Thanks for reporting, fixed in CVS.
