Howdy all, |

I just bumped into something I feel is a Portage and PMS bug. Since I |
4 |
believe in concrete use cases, I'll just go with that. |
5 |
|
6 |
Currently in the tree we have sys-fs/ntfs3g. However the proper upstream |
7 |
name and name referenced in every single doc in the world is "ntfs-3g". |
8 |
I tried to rename the package however, Portage does not let me since it |
9 |
is invalid naming. marienz and genone informed me it's invalid with PMS |
10 |
as well. |
11 |
|
12 |
The version I was trying to add is ntfs-3g-1.516. Logically Portage and |
13 |
PMS should only consider any data after the LAST - as the version |
14 |
information. Now in the cpv scheme of things, it's not undeterministic |
15 |
because the following two entries would be the only valid entries: |
16 |
|
17 |
sys-fs/ntfs-3g |
18 |
=sys-fs/ntfs-3g-1.516 |
19 |
|
20 |
Either way, that's my beef. |
