When trying to install mayavi I get unresolvable circular dependencies with dev-python/apptools-3.3.2 and dev-python/envisagecore-3.1.2: [nomerge ] sci-visualization/mayavi-3.3.2 USE="qt4 -doc" [ebuild N ] dev-python/apptools-3.3.2 USE="-doc -examples -test" 0 kB [ebuild N ] dev-python/envisagecore-3.1.2 USE="-doc -examples -test" 0 kB Total: 2 packages (2 new), Size of downloads: 0 kB * Error: circular dependencies: ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-python/apptools-3.3.2', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-python/envisagecore-3.1.2', 'merge') (runtime) ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-python/envisagecore-3.1.2', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-python/apptools-3.3.2', 'merge') (buildtime) * Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by temporarily * disabling USE flags that trigger optional dependencies. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge apptools 2. 3. Actual Results: apptools cannot be merged because of circular dependencies Expected Results: apptools and following packages should be merged Portage 2.2_rc67 (default/linux/x86/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.3.4, glibc-2.11.2-r0, 2.6.34-gentoo i686) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.34-gentoo-i686-AMD_Athlon-tm-_XP_2500+-with-gentoo-2.0.1 Timestamp of tree: Thu, 08 Jul 2010 09:30:01 +0000 distcc 3.1 i686-pc-linux-gnu [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 4.0_p37 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11 dev-lang/python: 2.6.5-r2, 3.1.2-r3 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4-r3 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.1 sys-apps/openrc: 0.6.1-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.65 sys-devel/automake: 1.9.6-r3, 1.10.3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.3.4, 4.4.3-r2 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.30-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="*" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/language.dat.d /etc/texmf/language.def.d /etc/texmf/updmap.d /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--with-bdeps y" FEATURES="assume-digests ccache distlocks fixpackages news parallel-fetch preserve-libs protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org" LANG="pl_PL.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="pl" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/var/lib/layman/akoya /var/lib/layman/sunrise /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowext R X a52 aac acl acpi alsa bash-completion bluetooth branding bzip2 bzlib cairo cddb cdr cli cracklib crypt cups cxx dbus dga dri dts dvd dvdr emboss encode exif fam ffmpeg flac foomaticdb fortran gif gimp gnuplot gnutls gpm gtk iconv ieee1394 imagemagick imap imlib ipv6 jabber java jpeg kipi lame latex lcms libnotify lm_sensors loop-aes mad mayavi mikmod mmx mmxext mng modules mp3 mp4 mpeg mplayer mudflap musepack ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl pam pango pcre pdf perl png ppds pppd pylint python qt3support qt4 quicktime raw readline reflection rss sdl session spell spl sse ssl startup-notification svg sysfs syslog tcpd tiff tk truetype unicode usb vorbis webkit win32codecs x264 x86 xcb xine xml xorg xrandr xulrunner xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1 intel8x0 mpu401" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="pl" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
