I've got emacs overlay installed with its unstable virtual/emacs-23 in it. When I try to upgrade my world portege[1] finds it and doesn't try to find the stable one (I've installed it already) from the main portage tree and suggests downgrade to emacs-22. [1] maybe it is a portage bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Please provide emerge --info app-editors/emacs and the Portage output for your downgrade with -pvt options.

I've revbumped virtual/emacs to -r1 in the overlay. Please do "layman -s emacs" and try again.
Looks and works fine. Portage doesn't suggest downgrade any more. Wouldn't -r99 or something like this be better? kotik ~ # emerge -pvt virtual/emacs These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies... done!

A revision bump for a virtual will probably never happen. Only direct version bumps.
