# emerge -p mm-sources module-init-tools

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

[ebuild  N   ] sys-kernel/mm-sources-2.5.63-r1  
[ebuild  N   ] sys-kernel/development-sources-2.5.63

# emerge -p mjc-sources module-init-tools

# emerge -p module-init-tools

maybe the devel kernels should depend on module-init-tools instead of the other
way around, since all the devel kernels need module-init-tools, but it only
wants the real devel sources.

on a side note, module-init-tools-0.9.10 is out and 0.9.9 is no longer available
from the SRC_URI.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -p module-init-tools and any devel kernel beside development-sources


Actual Results:  
wants to install developent-sources plus the kernel you specified

Expected Results:  
install just the kernel you specified

maybe a virtual for development-sources would work?
