Please explain why that's a problem.

The QA warning here is for docs.

It just looks like someone made a new package version but forgot to update the install path. Someone encountering any problem will start to investigate and encounter this.
Comment 8 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-10-08 13:20:08 UTC
I'm not sure how you reached that conclusion. The QA warning here is unrelated to slotting or anything like that - it's an FP/issue with gnome packages.

The api version upstream for this package is the same for previous versions per meson.build.

Please state explicitly what you're thinking and why.
Comment 9 Erik 2023-10-08 13:34:38 UTC
I did not see any QA warning. Just the output of equery. It shows that version 2.78.0 of the package installed a file in a path containing the version number 2.68. Any ordinary user who encounters some problem will notice it and start investigating whether that may be the cause of the problem. A user would expect version 2.78.0 to install into a path containing "2.78", not "2.68".

I posted here because the subject (except for the version number) matched what I stumbled upon.
