dev-util/git-1.5.4.4-r1 requires (as stated in <a href="https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214005">Bug #214005</a>) dev-perl/Error to make some features work (like git add -i). The solution to the previous bug (#214005) has now lead to the problem that git needs USE=perl to get those features working. USE=perl however requires dev-perl/NET-SMTP-SSL, which is not in prefix yet. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
I'm slightly confused: * no such package in main tree: dev-perl/NET-SMTP-SSL
Okay, that is _WEIRD_ but git obviously wants it: [20020:0][8:40][mh@SnowFlake:~/]% USE=perl emerge -puvn git These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies - emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "dev-perl/Net-SMTP-SSL". (dependency required by "dev-util/git-1.5.4.4-r1" [ebuild]) hmm... Okay. Sorry I see Its spelled Net-SMTP-SSL not NET-SMTP-SSL, got the capitalization wrong. Should've pasted it :/
That works indeed. I added the package, thanks!
I have to thank! Great work and thanks for fast fixing :) everything works as it should (as far as I can tell from a quick reemerge with USE=perl ).
