Hi Nicholas. I was processing a bug report on media-gfx/graphviz and suspected the problem to be related to gcc-3.x. So I added =sys-devel/gcc-2.95* to DEPEND. emerge does not have any problem with this (reports that "all packages sutisfying this dep are masked" on 1.4 based system and does Ok on 1.2). However repoman returned the following: [gerr@groug gentoo-x86]$ cd media-gfx/graphviz/ [gerr@groug graphviz]$ ls CVS/ ChangeLog files/ graphviz-1.7.15-r2.ebuild graphviz-1.8.10.ebuild [gerr@groug graphviz]$ repoman scan RepoMan scours the neighborhood... DEPEND.bad 1 media-gfx/graphviz/graphviz-1.7.15-r2.ebuild: ['=sys-devel/gcc-2.95*'] RDEPEND.bad 1 media-gfx/graphviz/graphviz-1.7.15-r2.ebuild: ['=sys-devel/gcc-2.95*'] Given this is 1.4 based system the message should probably have been DEPEND.badmasked. I have portage-2.0.43 running here. George
re-assigning to puggy as he is the main repoman guy now.
seems to be fixed
