Paludis is having a hard time with the line: samba? ( || ( >=net-fs/samba-3.4.6:0[smbclient] >=net-fs/samba-4.0.0:0[client] ) ) The problem is the open-ended constraint on the first spec. Paludis is matching any samba-4.* version to this first constraint, but then fails when it checks the USE flag (since "smbclient" has been renamed to "client"). A workaround that works with Paludis is as follows: samba? ( || ( ( >=net-fs/samba-3.4.6:0[smbclient] <net-fs/samba-4.0.0_alpha1:0[smbclient] ) >=net-fs/samba-4.0.0_alpha1:0[client] ) ) Just setting an upper limit on that first spec makes the definition a little clearer and helps Paludis understand it. Reproducible: Always
Thanks for reporting this, will test the proposed fix and most likely will incorporate it.
The proposed USE works as expected. On a
The proposed USE constraint works as expected, and on a positive note, VLC 2.2.1 seems to be building cleanly with GCC 5.3 which just entered ~amd64.
Created attachment 419250 [details] vlc-2.2.1-r1.ebuild Updated ebuild attached. As the proxy-maintainer for VLC, I'm good with this change. No need to revbump from my perspective. If a Gentoo dev stumbles upon this bug, please feel free to implement, otherwise I'll try to get a dev from #gentoo-proxy-maint to make the change this week. Thanks for reporting this bug; I don't use paludis so it never impacted me.
