The only problem we have there is that bash-3.2.17 only comes in patches |
8 |
on top of 3.2. During bootstrap that's problematic, as gnu patch (or |
9 |
any other patch) might not be available, or simply b0rked. |
10 |
For that reason we bootstrap with a portage pre SVN revision 10460, |
11 |
which does not require >=3.2.17. |

See http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=229677#c11 on why PMS should |
13 |
require 3.2.17 over plain 3.2 if you decide to push the requirement |
14 |
update. |

We can work around it by using a self-made pre-patched tarball, though. |
