As of version dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.5.6-r1 the ebuilds are slotted to |
| 22 |
their versions. This was done to be compatible with webapp-config. As |
| 23 |
older ebuild have SLOT="0", portage wants to install both version, but |
| 24 |
the newer version block the older ones. You have to unmerge all older |
| 25 |
version with |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
emerge -C "<=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.5.6" |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
then the blocker should go away. |
