-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 There are a couple of upstream packages that are release with p0 suffixes: ntp [1] and dvd95 [2]. Portage currently considers all packages to have an implicit _p0 suffix, which means that ntp-4.2.4_p0 < ntp-4.2.4-r1. Should we ban the _p0 suffix from the tree or should be change the version comparison behavior so that implicit _p0 is less than explicit _p0? We have a patch attached to bug 171259 [3] which will make ntp-4.2.4-r1 < ntp-4.2.4_p0.
