Those are the ones we probably do understand. You just up the SLOT (and |
| 12 |
if you really need to, use blockers between slots, although this is |
| 13 |
discouraged in favour of writing better ebuilds), and everything that |
| 14 |
build+run-deps upon these things uses := dependencies. |

That depends. If you only have to do it after an upgrade, same |
| 19 |
solution. If you have to do it with a rebuild too, then that's one of |
| 20 |
the situations I claim we don't fully understand because no-one has |
| 21 |
specified what the exact general problem is (although lots of people |
| 22 |
have looked at one particular case and assumed that their case holds |
| 23 |
for everything, which isn't true). |
