Description Sergej Pisarenko 2008-02-02 13:49:13 UTC
knetworkmanager depends on >=dev-libs/libnl-1.0_pre6-r1 whether networkmanager depends on =dev-libs/libnl-1.0_pre6 making it impossible to have both packages at the same time.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge --sync
2.emerge --update --deep --newuse -pv world

Yeah, emerge --sync and use net-misc/networkmanager-0.6.5_p20080130

networkmanager-0.6.5_p20080130 is marked unstable. 

net-misc/networkmanager-0.6.5_p20070823 works flawless with dev-libs/libnl-1.0_pre6-r1 at least on my box. A simple change in the ebuild for the 2007 Version of networkmanager (=dev-libs/libnl-1.0_pre6 changing into =dev-libs/libnl-1.0_pre6*) would solve this problem until the 2008 Version becomes stable.
