The same way that gtk-1 / gtk-2 goes -- add a bunch of useflags and |
| 6 |
force the package to use a particular version. :) |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
So for heimdal it becomes: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
db1? ( sys-libs/db-1* ) |
| 11 |
!db1? ( db3? ( sys-libs/db-3* ) ) |
| 12 |
!db1? ( !db3? ( db-4.0? ( sys-libs/db-4.0* ) ) ) |
| 13 |
... |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
db.eclass anyone? :) |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
After all, it is not only important to make heimdal compile and link |
| 18 |
properly, you also have to track the proper dependency and only make the |
| 19 |
package depend on the library that it is linked against. Or is a dep on |
| 20 |
sys-libs/db going to make the package depend on all slotted versions of |
| 21 |
db? |
