I don't know how to fix your problem (sorry); just wanted to mention |
7 |
that the reason that the version is still claimed to be 0.99.14 is |
8 |
because it *is* 0.99.14-- usually revisions (-r#) relate to the *ebuild* |
9 |
being revised, not the program. If the program is itself revised, |
10 |
upstream changes the version number most of the time; for example to |
11 |
0.99.15, indicating a relatively minor release update. This is a good |
12 |
thing, because if the source has changed, you will then have to download |
13 |
a new tarball due to the new release number, whereas if Gentoo revised |
14 |
an updated tarball with an -r1, you would probably miss the changes, |
15 |
because the old tarball would still be in /distfiles/ and Portage would |
16 |
not think it had to download a new one. |

Good luck with solving the issue with the program itself. |
