That's right. |

In this case the virtual would not work. Instead, it could be replaced |
36 |
with this: |
37 |
|
38 |
|| ( =dev-lang/python-2.7* =dev-lang/python-3* ) |
39 |
|
40 |
Similarly, >=dev-lang/python-2.6 could be replaced with this: |
41 |
|
42 |
|| ( =dev-lang/python-2.7* =dev-lang/python-2.6* =dev-lang/python-3* ) |
43 |
|
44 |
For >=dev-lang/python-2.5, we can use the virtual since python-2.4 has |
45 |
been dropped from the tree. |
