Then you can do explicit :2/2.32 dependencies if you like, or :2 (which would match SLOT=3D"2" or SLOT=3D"2/anything"), or :2=3D (which gets rewritten to :2/2.32=3D) or :2*. If an ebuild does SLOT=3D"2", it's treated as 2/2. --=20 Ciaran McCreesh --Sig_/C9YkC9UbTGSIyIYzKeEVU1e Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk/UklwACgkQ96zL6DUtXhFobgCdFyrYaiOPI38tNqSGZU7B1C5R efwAmwQeywWn2qyyoWtwlSSQQRGy5axJ =81Rt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/C9YkC9UbTGSIyIYzKeEVU1e--
