Don't restrict bugs without any reason. Just leave the checkboxes alone.

Jakub Moc -

Alright, next time I will leave all boxes unchecked under send bug to developers, security, or both. I thought it didn't have to do with security at all. My bad. This has to with the latest unstable release of portage on amd64 also. I am running amd64 too, just to let you know.

Sorry,
I've another problem with pycairo!
It depends on cairo-1.0.2 but don't accept >=cairo-1.0.x,
that's because I'm using E17 from cvs and need ~amd64's cairo-1.2.4 to build some packages but with an emerge -uDpv world it comeback to -amd64's cairo:
[ebuild     UD] x11-libs/cairo-1.0.4-r1 [1.2.4] USE="X doc png -glitz (-directfb%) (-pdf%*) (-svg%*)" 0 kB 
( yes, I need svg support of new cairo release )

I've to open another bug for this?

Please rename this bug to something more general, as it isnt really related to grip.
Same thing happens here:

dep tree "before":
[nomerge      ]   dev-python/pycairo-1.0.2  USE="numeric svg -gtk"
[ebuild     UD]    x11-libs/cairo-1.0.4-r1 [1.2.4] USE="X glitz png -doc (-directfb%*) (-pdf%*) (-svg%*)" 0 kB
[ebuild     UD]     media-libs/glitz-0.4.4 [0.5.6] 0 kB

dep tree "after":

[nomerge      ] media-fonts/font-alias-1.0.1  USE="-debug"
[ebuild     U ]    x11-libs/cairo-1.2.4 [1.0.4-r1] USE="X directfb%* glitz pdf%* png svg%* -doc" 0 kB
[ebuild     U ]     media-libs/glitz-0.5.6 [0.4.4] 0 kB

All mentioned packages are regular versions marked as "stable".
Platform is AMD64, emerge info not needed i guess...

did i understand comment #3 correctly? latest unstable portage detects circular dependencies? cool.

[Comment 6 Thomas Kohler 2006-11-24 14:52:53 UTC]

Same problem here with cairo (amd64):
1.) downgrade needed from pycairo 
2.) upgrade forced from emerge -NDu world
3.) see 1.)

My workarround:
echo "=x11-libs/cairo-1.2.4" >> /etc/portage/package.mask

good luck.
