This occured using: stage1-x86-20030910.tar.bz2
i replaced all the calls to 'perl -pi' with 'sed -i' and removed perl from DEPEND ... this is fixed unless i missed something az
nice! Also, I noticed that perl is included in many of the experimental stage1 tarballs. This would also fix it, but as long as the releases are still around, it's an issue. Is perl going to be included in stage1 going forward?
I was able to get perl to emerge with: USE="-ssl -X -java" emerge perl
This circular dependency still exists. I have emptied my USE flags completely (-everything), as you can see: # emerge -epv perl These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!
