To implement the equals slot operator, the package manager will need to store the slot/sub-slot pair of the best installed version of packages used to match a dependency. This syntax is only for package manager -use and must not be used by ebuilds. The package manager may do this by inserting the appropriate +use and must not be used by ebuilds. The package manager may do this by adding a dependency where it has inserted the appropriate slot/sub-slot pair between the colon and equals sign when saving the package's dependencies. The sub-slot part must not be omitted here (when the SLOT variable omits the sub-slot part, the package is considered to have an implicit sub-slot which is equal to the regular slot). -- 2.9.0
