Description poletti.marco 2012-10-31 11:29:21 UTC 
Disclaimer: this bug has been filed in a semi-automated manner.

When emerging the package x11-proto/xcb-proto-1.7.1, the following elog messages are displayed:

 * Please rebuild both libxcb and xcb-util if you are upgrading from version 1.6

Such messages should only be displayed when the package is upgraded from an old enough package (and possibly for new installs).
These situations can be checked in the ebuild as follows:

if has_version '<x11-proto/xcb-proto-1.0'; then

Or, if the message should also be displayed for new installs:

if !has_version 'x11-proto/xcb-proto' || has_version '<x11-proto/xcb-proto-1.0'; then

Remember to replace 1.0 with the right version number.

See the tracker bug 440214 for more details.
