Bug 131305 – Emerging Plone emerges the wrong version of Zope

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

[Description John 2006-04-26 02:17:05 UTC]

Emerging the latest stable version of Plone (2.0.4) emerges Zope 2.8.4 (the latest stable version of Zope).  But Plone 2.0.4 doesn't work with Zope 2.8.4, you need the previous version of Zope (2.7.8) for it to work.

At current level of solving dependencies, this is not possible in the portage.
Solution is to manualy emerge zope and then using zprod-manager install plone.

[Comment 2 John 2006-04-26 07:46:18 UTC]

Can you not add a dependency atom that's more specific the the version of zope?

See here code listing 10 here:

[Comment 3 John 2006-04-26 08:22:27 UTC]

Ok I see now.  I can change the plone ebuild to grab the correct version of zope (i.e. latest 2.7 series) but the other dependencies will grab zope 2.8.

Oh well never mind :)

Thanx this document is perfectly known to me :) however that's not what I was writing about because problem is much more complicated.
