Bugzilla Bug 178142

After an `emerge -uDN world` and an `emerge --depclean` several packages were
uninstalled. I don't know anymore which.

Now when starting `tvbrowser` I'm getting this message:

~ $ tvbrowser
!!! ERROR:
           Package bsf-2.3 not found in the system. This package is listed as a
           dependency of bsh. Please run  and if it does not bring in the
           needed dependency, report this to http://bugs.gentoo.org.

Couldn't get needed information


`emerge -uDa bsh` installs nothing because it's already installed including
every dependencies. But dev-java/bsf-2.3 is not installed. Of course I could
install it manually but I think this should be added to the dependency list in
the ebuild for tvbrowser or its appropriate dependency if this is really needed
by tvbrowser and/or one of its dependencies.

Forgot to mention that I of course also ran `revdep-rebuild` after the `emerge
--depclean`.

Yeah, the error was trying to tell you to remerge it anyway using "emerge -1
bsh-x.y" but looks like there's some problem with the output :) Running is good
for health but it usually doesn't bring in the dependencies back.

The problem was caused by me removing the bsf dep from bsh but not revbumping
it, so it was still recorded as dep in package.env but the RDEPEND didn't
"defend" it from depclean etc.

I've fixed it by revbumping bsh, but you can just remerge the version you have
without waiting for it to hit mirrors. Sorry for the problem.

Just reopening to answer you.

I've fixed it for me by emerging bsf manually.
Do I understand you right that I should unmerge bsf again and then remerge bsh?

You can do that well without reopening :)

Yeah... Or just wait till you sync the revbumped bsh, and on next deep world
update you will get it installed and then the next depclean will remove bsf
without problems.

Ok, next time I won't reopen it. ;-)

I don't think so because I haven't used -1 when emerging bsf manually. ;-)
