Bug 169187 – 'emerge -Dpuv world' doesn't update all packages (depclean related ?)

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Max Lorenz 2007-03-03 22:40:44 UTC]

# emerge -Dpuv world | grep sys-libs/db
<nothing>
# emerge -p --depclean | grep sys-libs/db
<nothing>
# emerge -puv sys-libs/db

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U ] sys-libs/db-1.85-r3 [1.85-r2] 15 kB
[ebuild     U ] sys-libs/db-4.1.25_p2 [4.1.25_p1-r4] USE="-bo[...]
[ebuild     U ] sys-libs/db-4.2.52_p4-r2 [4.2.52_p4] USE="-bo[...]

The first time I noticed this was when the new --depclean code was introduced(so some time ago) because the old --depclean wanted to remove these db versions while the new one didn't. Took a note, forgot about it and stumbled across it again. So either --depclean should clean them out or '-Dpuv world' should update them, shouldn't it?
I'll attach the --debug output, thanks in advance.

man emerge:

       --with-bdeps < y | n >
              In dependency calculations, pull in build time dependencies that
              are  not strictly required.   This defaults to 'n' for installa-
              tion actions and 'y' for the --depclean  action.   This  setting
              can be added to EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS (see make.conf(5)) and later
              overridden via the command line.

Uh, yes, totally forgot 'emerge --info', --with-bdeps is on.

It could be a little of both.  Even with --with-bdeps=n, it seems like the 4.2.52_p4 update should have been pulled in as an RDEPEND of python-2.4.4.  I'll have to look at this some more...

Nevermind that, db-4.3.29-r2 is the highest installed version, so that's all that's strictly needed.  I'll see about fixing the --depclean code to prune the slots that aren't strictly required.

make depclean prune unneeded slots

This patch, in svn r6161, makes depclean prune unneeded slots so that it is consistent with the world update algorithm.

[Comment 8 Zac Medico 2007-03-04 03:15:15 UTC]

This has been released in 2.1.2.1.
