That would be natural if the goddard/13 source rpm included files of constantine/12 and solar/11 as well and so on but it doesn't seem to. I would rather go with one ebuild per mayor release number of Fedora: Needs less use flag configuration as well. About slot names, if "12" is not good enough we could use 11-solar 12-constantine 13-goddard 14-laughlin 15-lovelock 16-verne or so for SLOT to have a mapping to names? Best Sebastian
