I gather that you've synced so if you run emerge -a1 '=readline-5*', |
| 41 |
that should install the latest 5.2_p14 ebuild which is appropriately |
| 42 |
slotted. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Note that the latest stable version of ghc (6.12.3-r2) doesn't depend on |
| 45 |
the old version of readline anyway. The main issue was that your portage |
| 46 |
tree was out of date. Now that has been dealt with, I think you just |
| 47 |
need to upgrade as normal. You can uninstall the old instance of ghc |
| 48 |
before allowing it to re-install, in case it still blocks. |
