Description Simon Cooper 2004-04-10 16:29:27 UTC

ati-drivers-extra depends on ~media-video/ati-drivers-${PV}, which means ati-drivers-2.7.6-r1 doesnt apply to this. Therefore ati-drivers-2.7.6 wants to be emerged each time you do emerge -pUD world if you have ati-drivers-2.7.6-r1 emerged. dependancies of ati-drivers-extra-2.7.6 need to be updated to include ati-drivers-2.7.6-r1

Reproducible: Always

seems that there is a problem with ~cat/pkg-version, the issue is fixed with a workaround, reassinging to dev-portage

Looks like it works to me... Reopen if you have something more specific

>>> portage.portdb.match("~media-video/ati-drivers-3.7.6")
['media-video/ati-drivers-3.7.6', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.7.6-r1']

>>> portage.portdb.xmatch("bestmatch-visible", "~media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.8")
'media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.8-r1'

>>> portage.portdb.match(">=media-video/ati-drivers-2.7.6")
['media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.8', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.7.6', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.5', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.0', 'media-video/ati-drivers-2.9.12', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.7.6-r1', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.5-r1', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.4', 'media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.8-r1', 'media-video/ati-drivers-2.9.13-r1', 'media-video/ati-drivers-2.9.13']
