We do only fix the latest ebuilds.
This needs to be fixed as koffice depends on this version. The same patch as for 2.6.9 can simply be applied.
I would really like to compile koffice. Please fix this bug.
(In reply to comment #3) > I would really like to compile koffice. Please fix this bug. > Since Gentoo is reluctant to fix 2.6.8, probably the simplest workaround is to merge version 2.6.9 instead, e.g. add the newer version to your package.keywords file.
I have 2.6.9 merged right now, but koffice wants to downgrade to 2.6.8 Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild UD] dev-libs/libpqxx-2.6.8 [2.6.9] 0 kB [ebuild N ] app-office/koffice-1.6.3-r2 USE="doc mysql postgres -arts -debug -xinerama" 0 kB
