Description Ciaran McCreesh 2006-02-05 14:25:47 UTC 
Currently, tetex.eclass causes ptex, tetex and cstetex to block themselves. Although Portage currently ignores this, it would probably be better to check ${PN} in the eclass and avoid setting self blocks.
Comment 1 Martin Ehmsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-06 02:06:53 UTC 
the tetex.eclass contains:
DEPEND="!app-text/tetex
        !app-text/ptex
        !app-text/cstetex
        ..."
because it is inherited (indirectly) by tetex, ptex, cstetex and each of them must exclude the others.
So the above should be replaced by:
if [[ "${PN}" = "tetex" ]] ; then
    DEPEND="!app-text/ptex
            !app-text/cstetex"
fi
and similar for ptex and cstetex.

That is the correct way of doing it, right?
If it is I'll fix it tonight (CET).

Yes, that looks fine. It's not a hugely urgent issue, since Portage currently ignores these, but it's something that would be nice to get right. Cheers.

Fixed in CVS.
