We've done it this way because plenty apps depends on
media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit. So if we would change the name to
media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-svn all apps will complain about
missing media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit.

Ahh...thanks!

But also, isn't that what a 'virtual' is for? I had thought this could
be handled that way. I'm probably wrong.


But you're right the -0.9999 version doesn't fit in my  naming-scheme so
I try to provide a meta ebuild or something like that which is called
media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit-svn
