easymock-2.2 causes a circular dependancy with junit-4. The test flag of easymock requires >=dev-java/junit-4. junit in turn needs CDEPEND="dev-java/hamcrest", which needs CDEPEND=">=dev-java/easymock-2.2.... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Emerge easymock without hamcrest and junit-4* installed.
Created attachment 128932 [details] Fixed the test flag Ebuild fixes the test flag so that it works correctly.
Thanks for the report and for the fix :-) I put that into overlay and bumped easymock to 2.3. I also added fix to be able to run tests with junit-4.4.
