Yep, it does show it twice. Here's a -p output: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
$ emerge -p system |

These are the packages that I would merge, in order: |

Note here that ioe-1.2 is installed first, then later ioe-1.1 is |
| 39 |
installed. Also for ndi: ndi-1.2 is installed first then a few packages |
| 40 |
later ndi-1.1 is installed. The last package listed (mse-2.0) is the |
| 41 |
wrapper package. That one requests ioe-1.1 and ndi-1.1. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
I just found the emerge --debug option so I'm also going to look |
| 44 |
carefully at that output and see if I can figure out what's going on. |

I'm _really_ curious to understand how Portage computes the |
| 48 |
dependencies, in detail. None of my hypotheses about how it might work |
| 49 |
appear to fit the facts. Is there any documentation on this, and/or |
| 50 |
anyone on the list who has enough of an intimate knowledge to describe |
| 51 |
it with some authority? |
| 52 |
|

Well, the thing is I want some systems to have an older version and |
| 57 |
other systems to have a newer version, so modifying the ebuilds is not |
| 58 |
really going to work. Also changing packages files or similar is tricky |
| 59 |
since it has to be done on many systems. I really need to be able to |
| 60 |
say "emerge wrapper-2.0" and get all the 2.0-based packages installed on |
| 61 |
the system. |
