dev-lib/ossp-uuid tries to pull in php even in the php use flag is not set. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure php is not set in use flags. 2. run emerge ossp-uuid -vp 3. Actual Results: dev-lang/php-5 is listed as dependency Expected Results: dev-lang/php-5 is not in the list of packages to install. Commenting out the need_php5_cli line in ossp-uuid ebuild removes the dependency on php.
Done. Thanks.
