• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Max Lorenz 2006-10-20 16:14:07 UTC]

As per discussion on bug #150361:
(In reply to comment #22)
>> # emerge -pu qt
>> [ebuild  NS   ] x11-libs/qt-4.1.4-r2  USE="...
>> 
>> # emerge -pu qt:3
>> [ebuild     U ] x11-libs/qt-3.3.6-r4 [3.3.6-r3]

> Actually, it seems like it should have pulled in the qt:3 update with the first

Comming right up. Thanks, Max

Created attachment 100109 [details]
emerge -pud qt

[Comment 2 Zac Medico 2006-10-20 16:44:37 UTC]

I see the problem.  The greedy code is currently only triggered when more that one slot of the give package is currently installed.

[Comment 3 Zac Medico 2006-10-20 18:27:14 UTC]

This is fixed in svn r4772.

[Comment 4 Zac Medico 2006-10-22 14:27:32 UTC]

This has been released in 2.1.2_pre3-r7.
