Crystalspaces ebuilds aren't slottable untill <= 1.0.1, after that, ebuild of 1.1.* 1.2.* , etc ... should be slottable (allow to keep latest of 1.1 and 1.2). need to add the missing ebuilds for :http://www.crystalspace3d.org/downloads/release/ as i understand this means that we should make the slot="" empty, and then starting from 1.0.1 use the minor version number as the slot number. This requires to update older ebuilds as well to make them non slottable right now, it s not that they are not slottable, but in the same slot (slot 0), hence, if we add another slot , we ll have the 2 versions installed together. Reproducible: Always
What do you mean - make not slottable? There's just one slot for both versions that are in portage, what are you requesting here???
Hello Jakub As i understand this: These packages specify SLOT="0" in the ebuilds. This is not the same as specifying an empty slot — an empty slot means "disable slotting entirely" from: http://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/slotting/index.html then this means that from current versions , we shall switch to SLOT="" because they arent slottable in existing ebuilds (0.98.4 and 1.01) , then, we need to add a new ebuild for the lastest versions of crystalspace (1.2.rc1) and make it slottable with 1.2 branch, there's no packages yet for 1.0.2, but it s coming in the next days and we should be iable to install it in parrallel with 1.0.2, need to make an ebuild for it as well as 1.2. ==== i get this when tryint to reply by mail: This is the Postfix program at host smtp.gentoo.org.

The Postfix program <bugzilla-daemon@gentoo.org>: cannot append message to destination file /dev/null: destination file is executable
SLOT is mandatory, file a bug about devmanual. So no, we won't set empty slot in the ebuilds, it's illegal. P.S. Do not reply to bugmail via email.
