PyTables-0.9.1 requires numarray-1.0 or greater, but the ebuild specifies any version of numarray. So, until numarray-1.0 is flagged stable in portage, it wont be installed for PyTables-0.9.1 when installed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge pytables Actual Results: portage attempts to install PyTables-0.9.1 without the right version of numarray, and installation thus fails. Expected Results: installed numarray 1.0 and then PyTables-0.9.1 numarray of course can be installed manually for the right version, but the install scripts are broken none-the-less
