Description Simon Ruggier 2006-01-29 16:29:23 UTC 
Here's a contrived example to illustrate the bug.

1. # echo sys-apps/baselayout unicode \# static >> /etc/portage/package.use
2. # emerge -vNp baselayout

Actual result:

# emerge -vp baselayout

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.14-r3  -bootstrap -build +static* +unicode 0 kB

Total size of downloads: 0 kB


Expected result:

# emerge -vp baselayout 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.14-r3  -bootstrap -build -static +unicode 0 kB

hrm, maybe I should file a bug for gentoo-syntax then?
