Subject: [gentoo-user] Trailing colon and integer in output of emerge
Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 12:32:21
Message-Id: 2130920.4kmpXs9fEJ@morgaine
1 Today I noticed that emerge adds a colon together with an integer to the
2 version of every package it wants to update, e.g. it says
3
4 [ebuild U ~] kde-base/kmail-4.9.3:4 [4.9.2:4] USE="handbook kontact (-
5 aqua) -debug {-test}" 0 kB
6
7 I never noticed the trailing ":4" before and I have no idea what it means. I
8 searched the gentoo website but haven't been able to find anything about it.
9 Does anyone what it is about?

11 Cheers :-)
