Description Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-01-30 12:15:06 UTC 
User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: 

When trying to install freetype-1.3.1-r3 (freetype-2.1.3-r2 is already
installed) fails:

~# emerge -K /usr/portage/media-libs/freetype/freetype-1.3.1-r3.ebuild

Calculating dependencies \
Missing binary for: media-libs/freetype-1.3.1-r3

!!! Error calculating dependancies. Please correct.

~# ls /usr/portage/packages/media-libs/
freetype-1.3.1-r3.tbz2  jpeg-6b-r3.tbz2       pdflib-4.0.3-r1.tbz2
freetype-2.1.3-r2.tbz2  libpng-1.2.5-r4.tbz2  t1lib-1.3.1.tbz2

(All are symlinks to their respective package in ../All/)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

1. Host1: emerge -B freetype (emerges -2.blah) , emerge -B freetype-1.3.1-r3.ebuild

2. Host2: emerge -K freetype (works), emerge -K freetype-1.3.1-r3 (fails)

Actual Results:  
Calculating dependencies \
Missing binary for: media-libs/freetype-1.3.1-r3

!!! Error calculating dependancies. Please correct.

Expected Results:  
Happily installing the binary...

Comment 1 Nicholas Jones (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-01-31 12:56:26 UTC 
emerge -K freetype-1.3.1-r3
That is not proper. Add an equal sign.
