New USE flags generally change dependencies (as is the case here), so a |
9 |
new revision ensures that people are forced to install the ebuild that |
10 |
supports python-3.8. Otherwise, you will eventually find a lot of people |
11 |
stuck unable to upgrade because they have an ebuild installed that only |
12 |
supports <=python-3.7, and were never prompted to install the copy that |
13 |
supports python-3.8. |
