Description Walther 2010-01-25 12:09:22 UTC

After today's rsync, sys-vinit-2.86-r12 was removed from the tree, and the system tried to downgrade me to 2.86-r10. Because the changelog states that it was "removing old versions" when 2.86-r10 was still left in there, I suspect it was removed in error?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge rsync
2. emerge -s sysvinit
3.

Actual Results:  
Shows that latest stable version is 2.86-r10

Expected Results:  
Should (I believe) show that latest stable version is 2.86-r12

It was never a stable version. So it's an old, and unused version.

Closing as INVALID.
