ess-5.3.6 was released back on 13th September 2007 (see https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/ess-help/2007-September/004310.html). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge app-emacs/ess 2. 3. Actual Results: app-emacs/ess-5.3.5 is emerged Expected Results: Would be nice to have 5.3.6 Copied the app-emacs/ess-5.3.5.ebuild to my local overlay and bumped the version to 5.3.6 and its been perfectly stable since then. Really useful functionality for R users that was added was.... * ESS[R] add Sven Hartenstein's "R function arguments tips" functionality, via new file `../lisp/essd-r-args.el'. Note that this includes an "electric "("" behavior inside `R-mode' which is _active by default_ and can be customized via ESS-R-ARGS-ELECTRIC-PAREN; i.e., use `(setq ess-r-args-electric-paren nil)' to turn it off. Further, ESS-R-ARGS-SHOW-AS allows to switch to the "tooltip" mode.
Bumped, thanks for reporting. I did some additional cleanup of the ebuild, so I would be grateful if you could test it again.

app-emacs/ess-5.3.6 does not byte compile itself while emerging (if it was meant). So when emacs starts, I get lots of the messages like these: Source file `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/ess-site.el' newer than byte-compiled file Source file `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/ess-emcs.el' newer than byte-compiled file Source file `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/essd-r.el' newer than byte-compiled file Source file `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/essl-s.el' newer than byte-compiled file Source file `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/ess-mode.el' newer than byte-compiled file Source file `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/ess.el' newer than byte-compiled file ... Btw I use ~amd64 and emacs-cvs

It did, only the compiled files were installed too early, i.e. before the sources. > So when emacs starts, I get lots of the messages like these: These are only warnings and shouldn't compromise operation of Emacs or ESS. However, this is fixed in 5.3.6-r1 now. Thank you for pointing it out.
Ulrich, thank you very much for clarifying and fixing. No more warnings, anymore.
