That's not to strange. I have seen this with other packages before. |
42 |
Keep in mind, portage is maintained by Gentoo devs so they could release |
43 |
a version, see something that isn't working quite like they want, make |
44 |
some changes and push them out for upgrades. I would much rather them |
45 |
do that than wait a couple days while people are using a "buggy" |
46 |
package. Only thing worse is to upgrade, then downgrade, wait a few |
47 |
days and have to upgrade again. |
