Yeah, I second that.

Also most of the scripts in /usr/share/gmt-6.4.0/tools/ are using "gmt" and not "gmt6", which doesn't work.

f.e.:
------------------------------------------------------------
if ! [ -x "$(command -v gmt)" ]; then
  echo 'Error: gmt is not found in your search PATH.' >&2
  exit 1
fi
------------------------------------------------------------

If you source one of these scripts in your bashrc, you will be logged out immediately from ssh after logging in.

-----------------------------------------
source $(gmt6 --show-sharedir)/tools/gmt_functions.sh
-----------------------------------------

So the whole slot feature is incomplete and in some ways broken without having a way to select the active version? (eselect gmt missing?)

Maybe also not needed anymore because gmt6 is the only slot in portage?
