Hiya, |

I just committed yet another bug fix to Portage 1.5_pre1. |
4 |
|
5 |
So far, I have the following features to add for 1.5_final: |
6 |
|
7 |
1. Don't use the "rev" in the package database. Packages with the same |
8 |
version, but different "rev" overwrite each other. Record revision in |
9 |
a REVISION file in /var/db/pkg. |
10 |
|
11 |
Possibly: |
12 |
|
13 |
Only allow one version of a package installed at a time. |
14 |
Override with a DIFFVERSION= setting in the ebuild: |
15 |
|
16 |
DIFFVERSION="major" means "allow the same package with differing major |
17 |
versions to be installed" |
18 |
|
19 |
DIFFVERSION="minor" would allow foo-1.2 and foo-1.3 to be installed at |
20 |
the same time, but not foo-1.2 and foo-1.2.1 |
21 |
|
22 |
Comments welcome. |
