I noticed this behavior as well. It's because the apache USE flag was |
| 24 |
removed from the php package. Once the 4.4.7 build succeeded (but |
| 25 |
failed since it didn't produce an apache1 mod), a downgrade to 4.4.6 |
| 26 |
wasn't possible (since neither had the USE flag available). Luckily, |
| 27 |
there's always source to work from, or if you've got another identical |
| 28 |
machine that hasn't emerege --sync 'd yet... (nice to keep one around |
| 29 |
that syncs at a slower pace than others for this reason). |

One question from a gentoo newbie: Unmasking apache and its associated |
| 32 |
packages was simple enough, but is there a way to allow a USE flag from |
| 33 |
a hard-masked package like apache to be used by packages like php? |
