I'm also concerned with this one. Bumping version in an eclass so that the minver that everything -in the tree- needs is correct seems to me could suddenly make incorrect everything that's currently emerged up to that change. That said this might not matter since deps are almost always pushed up to latest stable/~arch anyways, so perhaps i'm just generally being more sensitive on this than is necessary. Definitely, if the minver was bumped to fix a bug, then imo the eclass needs bumping to enforce the vdb update. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iF4EAREIAAYFAlX5yR4ACgkQAJxUfCtlWe3BZQD8CPVQ/oEjszqAFtgQzLFKKOSz 3fXRt3ARQE8HHI/jyTwA/jMOnDTTENLs7R/8r2VYYrHIUAv6mrQljuSU2zalJEXY =S25f -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
