Hi,
is it by any means possible to specify a _minimum_ version of a package?
i.e. you have different slots for a package and one wants to have any
version from a specific release and do not want to miss any updates onwards?

With package.keywords you could use
>=category/package-version
ie
>=dev-db/mysql-4.0.25-r2
but afaik this will also want to install packages that are marked
unstable, ie mysql 4.1.x
So add "arch" to the end, ie
>=dev-db/mysql-4.0.25-r2 x86
-c
