Calculating dependencies... done!


[nomerge      ] dev-perl/Archive-Tar-1.38
[nomerge      ]  perl-core/Test-Harness-3.10 [2.64]
[ebuild  N    ]   dev-perl/module-build-0.28.08  USE="-test"
[ebuild  N    ]    dev-perl/Archive-Tar-1.38
[ebuild  N    ]     virtual/perl-Test-Harness-3.10
[ebuild     U ]      perl-core/Test-Harness-3.10 [2.64]

 * Error: circular dependencies:

('ebuild', '/', 'dev-perl/module-build-0.28.08', 'merge') depends on
   ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-perl/Archive-Tar-1.38', 'merge') (hard)
('ebuild', '/', 'dev-perl/Archive-Tar-1.38', 'merge') depends on
   ('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/perl-Test-Harness-3.10', 'merge') (hard)

('ebuild', '/', 'perl-core/Test-Harness-3.10', 'merge') depends on
   ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-perl/module-build-0.28.08', 'merge') (hard)
('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/perl-Test-Harness-3.10', 'merge') depends on
   ('ebuild', '/', 'perl-core/Test-Harness-3.10', 'merge') (medium)

 * Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by temporarily
 * disabling USE flags that trigger optional dependencies.
Comment 1 Torsten Veller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-05-09 15:11:45 UTC 
I've removed >=virtual/perl-Test-Harness-2.26 from DEPEND of dev-perl/Archive-Tar.

|-   The Test::Harness that came with perl 5.6.0 was buggy, require
|    a higher version in the Makefile.PL

perl-5.6* was removed 4 years ago.
