While linking apache-tools 2.2.15 I get this error message: cannot find -luuid The problem could be fixed by upgrading util-linux from 2.14.2 to 2.16.2. The more recent version now contains libuuid, the older did not. It happened on a system that I haven't touched for a year or so and I have tons of conflicts here, while I'm upgrading. It is therefore quite likely that it doesn't happen during a seamless upgrade but I don't see why the ebuild for apache-utils doesn't list the dependency. The problem is a hard one for normal users because the obvius solution "emerge --search uuid" does not point you in the right direction. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Sorry, I cannot paste because the system is currently completely broken.
Hello Guido, can you please attacht the build.log and environmentfile of the failing emerge process. A comment with `emerge --info` would be nice, too. Michael
I don't have access to the original system but I can reproduce it everywhere like this: emerge --unmerge util-linux emerge apache-tools This fails because of the missing libuuid, I will attach the build.log. emerge util-linux apache-tools This succeeds.

Created attachment 235383 [details] Build log for apache-tools with missing libuuid.
Thank you for report! Build failure does not mean that apache-tools should depend on libuuid. In this case apache-tools depend on libapr which in turn depends on libuuid. So if you remove libuuid you break libapr and broken libapr-1 is the reason you are unable to build apache-tools. apache-tools in turn already depend on sys-apps/util-linux, thus this bug is invalid.
