Subject: [gentoo-dev] Possible portage 1.7.7 bug??

1 Hi,
2
3 When using portage 1.7.7 try this to test for a possible bug
4 in deciding latest versions of package names again:
5
6 emerge net-misc/openssh
7
8 Portage chooses openssh-3.0_p1-r6, but there are at least two other
9 ebuilds that are greater than this, namely openssh-3.0.1_p1 and
10 openssh-3.0.2_p1
11
12 openssh is not in package.mask, so I don't think that is part of this
13 problem.
14
15 Is this a real bug? Am I interpreting the ebuild names incorrectly?
