Description Robert Piasek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-01-21 16:19:58 UTC
kde 4.0 wants to downgrade my networkmanager SVN. I've checked an ebuild and found:

networkmanager? ( =net-misc/networkmanager-0.6* )

Is there any reason it should require networkmanager 0.6 branch?
do you believe it could be changed to:
networkmanager? ( >=net-misc/networkmanager-0.6* )



Reproducible: Always

Unfortunately, yes.
KDE 4.0.0 doesn't have support for the 0.7 branch, so I had to restrict it to the 0.6 branch. You can avoid the downgrade by disabling the networkmanager flag for kde-base/kdebase:kde-4 until this issue is resolved upstream.
