Bug 314515 – python:2.6 will block gentoolkit if python:3.1[-xml] is emerged

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description fabian 2010-04-10 13:17:36 UTC]

when python:2.6[xml] and python:3.1[-xml] is installed, an emerge gentoolkit fails with:
[ebuild     U ] app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc10-r1 [0.3.0_rc9]
[blocks B     ] >=dev-lang/python-2.6[-xml] (">=dev-lang/python-2.6[-xml]" is blocking app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc10-r1)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE=xml emerge python:2.6
   USE=-xml emerge python:3.1
2. emerge gentoolkit


Actual Results:  
[ebuild     U ] app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc10-r1 [0.3.0_rc9]
[blocks B     ] >=dev-lang/python-2.6[-xml] (">=dev-lang/python-2.6[-xml]" is blocking app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc10-r1)

 * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
 * installed at the same time on the same system.

  ('ebuild', '/', 'app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc10-r1', 'merge') pulled in by
    gentoolkit


Expected Results:  
should work, as the used python for the systemstuff is 2.6 which is compiled with xml set

Not a bug.  gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc10 works with python3 and requires xml support.

[Comment 2 fabian 2010-04-12 16:40:53 UTC]

so it uses python3 even if python2.6 is set for system usage?

[Comment 3 Paul Varner (RETIRED) 2010-04-12 18:06:17 UTC]

No, but if you do switch and use python3, it will be broken.  If you really want to keep your python 3 install the way it is, you can do emerge --nodeps gentoolkit and it will install it.
