Description A. Craig West 2009-11-02 02:15:51 UTC
When I try emerge -p -u --deep world, the merge is blocked because of qt-4.6.0_beta1. The error given is:
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "~x11-libs/qt-script-4.6.0_beta1" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- x11-libs/qt-script-4.6.0_beta1 (masked by: package.mask)
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Alex Alexander <wired@gentoo.org> (16 Oct 2009)
# Qt 4.6.0 beta - masking before adding for testing


For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "x11-libs/qt-4.6.0_beta1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "world" [argument])

This appears to be a bug in portage, because both x11-libs/qt-script-4.6.0_beta1 and x11-libs/qt-4.6.0_beta1 are listed in package.mask, so this should not cause a block.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -p -u --deep world
2.profit...
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge is blocked

Expected Results:  
emerge is not blocked

Any chance you broke it by yourself ?
Did you put x11-libs/qt in /usr/portage/profiles/package.unmask ?

Now I feel stupid. I was sure I hadn't unmasked anything, but I was wrong...
