While using linux-vserver, I tried to install squid. It depends on virtual/linux-sources, that are normaly not installed inside a vserver-guest. Trying to install net-proxy/squid with --nodeps compiles fine and squid is working. Currently avoiding this problem with "sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.29-r5" in /etc/portage/profile/package.provided Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -pv net-proxy/squid Actual Results: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
