Description Joseph Mulloy 2006-12-17 20:33:12 UTC

The latest changes to sys-power/kpowersave-0.6.2 make it depend on dev-libs/dbus-qt3-old which forces an upgrade to sys-apps/dbus-1.0.2 which hal wants to downgrade when I run "emerge -vautD world". This is rather annoying, does hal not work with dbus >0.9 or is this an artificial limit. All versions on hal in portage depend of dbus <0.9.

Nevermind, gentoo-portage listing of dependencies is confusing, latest version works.
