Description Philippe Lafoucrière 2003-07-15 04:08:02 UTC
when I try to upgrade my system with --upgradeonly option I get :

<i>
 emerge -UDp --usepkg --buildpkg world
>>> --upgradeonly implies --update... adding --update to options.

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[binary    U ] app-editors/vim-core-6.2-r1 [6.1-r5] 
[binary    UD] media-libs/gstreamer-0.6.1-r1 [0.6.2] 
[ebuild    UD] net-www/mozilla-1.3-r2 [1.4] 
</i>

if I upgrade vim-core then I get with an emerge -UDp world :

<i>
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[binary    UD] app-editors/vim-core-6.1-r5 [6.2-r1] 
[binary    UD] media-libs/gstreamer-0.6.1-r1 [0.6.2] 
[ebuild    UD] net-www/mozilla-1.3-r2 [1.4] 
</i>



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -UDp world
Actual Results:  
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[binary    UD] app-editors/vim-core-6.1-r5 [6.2-r1] 
[binary    UD] media-libs/gstreamer-0.6.1-r1 [0.6.2] 
[ebuild    UD] net-www/mozilla-1.3-r2 [1.4] 

Expected Results:  
nothing ! (all packages have been updated)
