Description Maurizio Disimino 2002-07-30 13:48:47 UTC
*openssl-0.9.6e (30 Jul 2002)
  30 Jul 2002; Daniel Ahlberg <aliz@gentoo.org> openssl-0.9.6e.ebuild :
  New version to fix security, http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20020730.txt

sexybit root # qpkg -I -v openssl
dev-libs/openssl-0.9.6d-r1 *

sexybit root # emerge -p system --emptytree | grep openssl
[ebuild  N   ] dev-libs/openssl-0.9.6e to /

sexybit root # emerge -up system | grep openssl
sexybit root #

( uh ?!? emerge will not upgrade openssl, a *core* package )

sexybit root # emerge -up openssl | grep openssl
[ebuild    U ] dev-libs/openssl-0.9.6e to /

Portage .22
The package is not masked or keywork masked, at least for my arch (x86)
and my local tree is udated.

Comment 1 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-07-31 14:33:02 UTC
that because the "--update" option does not update the dependancies of world and
system..... This is really bad and should be fixed
Comment 2 Daniel Robbins (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-01 00:17:22 UTC
This is a known behavior and we are keeping it this way until all our ebuilds
have slots; then I can add some smarter code to emerge -up world.

emerge -u --deep world
