Description ganfset 2003-03-13 21:27:54 UTC
I've put last nvidia drivers with ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" (for nvidia-kernel and
nvidia-glx only). When I try to see emerge upgrades, it writes it want to
upgrade (not downgrade, since there is no "D") nvidia-kernel from 1.0.4191-r2 to
1.0.3123-r2. It lacks a "D" in the output.

friend ebuild nvidia-glx behaves correctly (ie proposed downgrade from
1.0.4191-r1 to 1.0.3123). 

portage version is 2.0.47-r8, Gentoo is 1.4

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx
2. emege -pu world

Actual Results:  
[ebuild    U ] media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.3123-r2 [1.0.4191-r2]
[ebuild    UD] media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.3123 [1.0.4191-r1]

Expected Results:  
[ebuild    UD] media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.3123-r2 [1.0.4191-r2]
[ebuild    UD] media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.3123 [1.0.4191-r1]
