7 If eg konqeror isn't updated in 3.4.1, only the 3.4.0 ebuild will exist. Doing
8 an emerge kdebase-meta on a clean system will then install some packages at
9 version 3.4.1, and some (like konqueror) at 3.4.0.

11 It takes some code to maintain the proper deps for this, but a lot less than
12 for the general case propose by the OP.
