pena paludis # emerge -1pv helium

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[blocks B     ] >=dev-lang/ghc-bin-6.4 (is blocking dev-lang/helium-1.2-r1)
[ebuild  N    ] dev-lang/ghc-bin-6.4.2  18,914 kB
[ebuild  N    ] dev-lang/helium-1.2-r1  USE="readline" 1,290 kB

DEPEND=">=virtual/ghc-6.2
	!>=virtual/ghc-6.4

This is so wrong.

Patch to fix wrong dependency

This patch fixes the dependencies for Helium, such that ghc-bin-6.2 is installed instead of 6.4.
