I unmasked libpq-8.1.x and postgresql-8.1.x and now when I try and update world it try's to pull in multiple versions of libpq. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) Edit /etc/portage/package.keywords <dev-db/postgresql-8.2 ~x86 <dev-db/libpq-8.2 ~x86 2) $ emerge -qvuDN world Actual Results: !!!
