1 Hello,
2
3 Recently I upgraded to python-2.6.2-r1 which currently is slotted on
4 my system as long as python-2.5.4-r3 is. After running python-upgrade
5 twice I see that dev-libs/boost-1.35.0-r2 and x11-libs/vte-0.17.4-r3
6 are still linked to libpython2.5.so.1.0. On the other hand emege
7 --depclean -p suggests that python-2.5.4-r3 can be removed and this is
8 what I would like to do if possible. Shouldn't python-upgrade have
9 resolved this linking issue? From the afore mentioned ebuilds I can
10 tell that there is no specific dependency on python 2.5. Any help would
11 be appreciated.
