If I currently have tetex 2.0.2 on my system, an emerge -auvD world will insist on downgrading to 1.0.7. When its done that, next time I do an emerge -auvD world, it will insist on bumping it to 2.0.2. It's getting a bit tiring now. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -auvD world 2. wait five hours for everything to compile for the 1000th time 3. emerge -auvD world Actual Results: tetex is compiled yet again Expected Results: tetex should bloody well stick at current version instead of bouncing. a -auvDt output looks like: # emerge -auvDt world These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!
