Description Roumano 2006-12-01 04:31:21 UTC 
The number of package increase & the possibility of package with the same short name is increasing ... ( like listen  beagle ... )

Exemple :
emerge -pv listen
!!! The short ebuild name "listen" is ambiguous.  Please specify !!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead:
    media-sound/listen
    dev-tinyos/listen

It's will be great if the portage will look on our world file & check if only one of them is already installed & select this-one.

Exemple : I have already installated media-sound/listen , a emerge -pv listen will automatically select the media-sound/listen ...
