Description Collins Richey 2003-09-20 10:12:38 UTC

Totally solid 0.9.2 ebuild now deprecated in favor of older release.  In
addition, I thought that -pU was supposed to omit downgrades.  What the hell is
going on here?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -pU world (with sylpheed-0.9.2 installed)
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
 [ebuild     UD] net-mail/sylpheed-0.8.11 [0.9.2]

Expected Results:  
In my opinion, -pU should ignore this downgrade attempt.  Also, why is 0.9.2
suddenly deprecated?

I forgot to move one of them to stable -- 0.9.4 is stable right now. sorry about that.
