I've been watching this thread http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=303720 |
| 11 |
which echos what I've seen myself: -U seems to be flakey. I'd like to try |
| 12 |
to fix this but I don't want to reinvent the wheel. Is someone already |
| 13 |
working on this problem? Is version 2.0 about to come out? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
If the answers are 'no' and 'no', does anyone know the current state? |
| 16 |
It seems that a fix involves is_newer_ver_installed() in /usr/bin/emerge |
| 17 |
and xmatch() in portage.py. They look a little cryptic. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
It seems to me, perhaps nievely, that all that is needed is a list of |
| 20 |
installed packages and a method for ordering version numbers. |
