19
20 05 May 2006; Stefan Schweizer <genstef@g.o>
21 +foomatic-filters-3.0.2-r1.ebuild:
22 rev-bump foomatic-filters to force remerge, no changes apart from the
23 foomatic-db-old block, stable from the beginning, bug 131533
24
25 Also, the block is on foomatic-db versions less than 20050910, which
26 is currently stable. So if you have 20050910 installed, you should be
27 ok. What does "emerge -pv foomatic-db" report?
28
29 You might also add the --tree option to see what is pulling in
30 foomatic-filters, what is going to be upgraded, or installed new, etc.
