Description Small_Penguin 2008-06-29 21:22:22 UTC

Is there a reason sys-libs/db:4.6 is not in the list? Both ebuilds are unstable.
Clarification would be nice.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look at the URL for python ebuild.

Actual Results:  
berkdb? ( || ( sys-libs/db:4.5 sys-libs/db:4.4 sys-libs/db:4.3
		sys-libs/db:4.2 ) )

Expected Results:  
berkdb? ( || ( sys-libs/db:4.6 sys-libs/db:4.5 sys-libs/db:4.4
		sys-libs/db:4.3 sys-libs/db:4.2 ) )


I had to unmask python-2.5 for some package, now it wants me to additionally install db:4.5. db:4.6 is installed. I altered the ebuild accordingly - see expected result - and have not experienced anything bad yet.
