Description Chris Slycord 2005-03-15 13:40:47 UTC

If portage tries to install "virtual/textbrowser" then it tries to install "net-www/links" when it should look for "www-client/links"

My simple fix was to create /etc/portage/profile/virtuals and editing it so that it just contained this line "virtual/textbrowser www-client/links"

this was fixed late yesterday, after I realised our pkgmove tool didn't update the virtuals definitions. sorry for the latency in that.
