When trying to emerge sci-physics/meep-0.20.3 with sci-libs/libctl-3.0.2 already installed, portage does not warn me of any problems. However, when the emerge is in progress it fails during the `configure' stage because of a dependency on sci-libs/libctl-3.0.3 . Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge libctl-3.0.2 (emerge =sci-libs/libctl-3.0.2). This can only be done from an old portage tree. 2. Emerge meep-0.20.3 (emerge meep). Actual Results: checking whether libctl version is at least 3.0.3... configure: error: libctl version 3.0.3 or later is required Expected Results: >>> sci-physics/meep-0.20.3 merged. An easy solution is just to make the following modification in the ebuild file: - guile? ( >=sci-libs/libctl-3.0 ) + guile? ( >=sci-libs/libctl-3.0.3 ) Output of emerge --info: * Overlay eclass overrides eclass from PORTDIR: * * '/usr/local/sci/eclass/fortran.eclass' * * It is best to avoid overridding eclasses from PORTDIR because it will * trigger invalidation of cached ebuild metadata that is distributed with * the portage tree. If you must override eclasses from PORTDIR then you * are advised to run `emerge --regen` after each time that you run `emerge * --sync`. Set PORTAGE_ECLASS_WARNING_ENABLE="0" in /etc/make.conf if you * would like to disable this warning.

Created attachment 177071 [details] config.log file from failed emerge May or may not be useful, but portage told me to attach this.
Updated in cvs. Thanks for checking this!
