Description Patrizio Bassi 2005-01-07 05:35:29 UTC

hi...it's pretty a week that sdl-perl package gets updated and dowgranded.

1.20.3 is needed by frozen-bubble. i testes it with 2.x and doesn't work, it freezes and needs to be killed.

from the game website:
Warning, version 1.0.0 needs perl-SDL >= 1.19; WARNING, perl-SDL 2.x is incompatible with 1.0.0

so...portage updates to 2.0 and frozenbubble make it downgrade.

personally i think i'll mask the 2.x version

I can confirm this bug: portage installs 2.1.2-r1 with one upgrade, then downgrades to 1.20.3 with the next upgrade.

Packages should be slotted, so both versions are on the system at the same time.
