Same problem on an i386/p3:  same circular dependencies on 'emerge gnome'

I'm attaching 'emerge info' output from my i386/p3 because I have run into this
bug today after updating portage/resyncing.

*** Bug 149695 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

From the duplicate bug:

!!! Error: circular dependencies:

ebuild / dev-perl/Audio-CD-disc-cover-0.05 merge depends on
   ebuild / dev-perl/libwww-perl-5.803-r1 merge (hard)
ebuild / app-cdr/disc-cover-1.5.4 merge depends on
   ebuild / dev-perl/Audio-CD-disc-cover-0.05 merge (hard)
ebuild / dev-perl/Crypt-SSLeay-0.51-r1 merge depends on
   ebuild / dev-perl/libwww-perl-5.803-r1 merge (hard)
ebuild / dev-perl/libwww-perl-5.803-r1 merge depends on
   ebuild / dev-perl/Crypt-SSLeay-0.51-r1 merge (hard)

This apparently has nothing to do w/ Gnome, re-assigning to perl folks.
