Steps to reproduce (on a stable system): 1. emerge -av gammu python-gammu wammu 2. Run wammu. It works fine. 3. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge -av gammu # Or add it to /etc/portage/package.keywords 4. Run wammu. This error message is printed: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/wammu", line 48, in ? import Wammu.App File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Wammu/App.py", line 23, in ? import Wammu.Main File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Wammu/Main.py", line 59, in ? import Wammu.MailWriter File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Wammu/MailWriter.py", line 32, in ? import gammu SystemError: Runtime libGammu version does not match compile time version (runtime: 1.07.00, compiletime: 1.05.00) Running revdep-rebuild does not fix the problem. We need to manually re-emerge python-gammu to fix this. Expected behavior: Portage (or revdep-rebuild) should be able to fix that.
Either upgrade both or none. They can't depend on each other, creating circular dependencies.
I understand that. But isn't there any other solution? Not even on revdep-rebuild?
revdep-rebuild is not for python stuff, sorry. Wouldn't solve version mismatch anyway, it can't guess, it can only re-emerge stuff :) No solution here until portage handles circular dependencies (Bug 16365).
