[Zope-dev] zc.buildout problem

Hello,

Following just happened. The project has KGS 3.4 versions as a base,
locally I wanted to override lxml to >= 2.1.1.

[...snip...]
extends = http://download.zope.org/zope3.4/3.4.0/versions.cfg
versions = versions

[versions]
lxml >= 2.1.1
[...snip...]

The bin/buildout -vvvvv output was:
Installing 'zc.buildout', 'setuptools'.
We have the distribution that satisfies 'zc.buildout==1.1.1'.
We have the distribution that satisfies 'setuptools==0.6c9'.
[...snip...]
Configuration data:
[...snip...]
[versions]
[...snip...]
lxml = 1.3.6
lxml > = 2.1.1
[...snip...]
Getting required 'lxml==1.3.6'
We have the distribution that satisfies 'lxml==1.3.6'.
[...snip...]

I thought the local [versions] would override the inherited ones?
If I put
lxml = 2.1.1
buildout nicely picks 2.1.1

Is this a bug?
