It would be a useful enhancement. Also, this could check for things like USE or subslot dependencies that only match older versions. (In reply to crocket from comment #5) > Do you mean lack of interest or manpower rather than rejection of upper > bound checks? Don't think anyone can answer this question for project open to outside contribution. I think this issue is more urgent than other haskell issues since it blocks "emerge -quDN @world". Is there a way to work around this issue other than to wait for fixes to come to haskell overlay? repoman support has been removed per bug 835013. Please file a new bug (or, I suppose, reopen this one) if you feel this check is still applicable to pkgcheck and doesn't already exist. I think this might still be relevant for pkgcheck. |
