Before anyone responds I will throw in my theory :) |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
I'm using ~amd64 and I suppose perhaps the ebuilds have changed since |
| 33 |
I installed them, but have not had a version increase. So, the |
| 34 |
foobar-0.10 installed on my box has different dependencies than the |
| 35 |
foobar-0.10 currently in portage, and portage doesn't check for |
| 36 |
same-version changes unless you re-emerge it. |
