For example net-p2p/deulge depends on devel/boost but multimedia/miro depends on devel/boost-python. The only difference between boost and boost-python is boost-python sets the -DWITH_PYTHON flag and lists lang/python - -2.5 while boost does not depend on it and makes the user specify the above flag from the command line. Under the old portugrade it relied on miro and/or deluge to detect its own depends and since both did it by xDEP on the installed files either whould be accepted. Under the new one portupgrade attempts to build from index depends thus does not allow this interchangablity. - -- Aryeh M.
