Description Jacob Godserv 2010-08-23 23:22:06 UTC
In this particular case, automake constantly wants to reinstall:

 # emerge -b1v automake:1.10 # rebuild automake from source and make a binpkg
 # emerge -uDNv automake # says no packages
 # emerge -KuDNv automake # says one package:
[binary   R   ] sys-devel/automake-1.10.3
 # emerge -KuNv automake # says no packages

I can't get out of this loop.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Not entirely sure here. The best way, I think, is to try a Neuvoo stage5 tarball:
http://neuvoo.org/neuvoo/images/0.3.0/test/neuvoo-0.3.0_rc7-official-stage5-beagle-20100730.tar.bz2
Chroot into that via qemu-user (real easy to set up: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/handbook/index.xml?part=1&chap=5 ) if you don't have armv7a hardware.

Then try what I mentioned above. This is the binhost for that particular stage, and it also will have this same bug:
http://neuvoo.org/neuvoo/packages/armv7a/beagle/

automake:1.10 /var/db/pkg entry

This is automake:1.10's /var/db/pkg entry. The binpkg is uploading next.

Comment 3 Jacob Godserv 2010-08-24 01:07:48 UTC
Wow. So I rebuilt automake:1.11 because I realized it's not in the binary repo, even though it's installed, and now I don't get this anymore. I think I kind of understand why portage was behaving like this.

Still, it'd be nice to get a warning, similar to a block error.
Comment 4 Jacob Godserv 2010-08-30 16:00:05 UTC
Nevermind. Automake:1.10 binpkg still wants to be reinstalled constantly, no matter how many times I rebuild it (as stated) or whether newer versions of automake are installed.
