Unsatisfied dependencies output is reported to stderr like bug 335642. (I think it's no regression, because no portage version i tested worked.)

This is a backtracking message, and it seems that backtracking conflicts with the goal of app-portage/autounmask emerge usage. If that's the case, then the program should insert --backtrack=0 in to the emerge options. However, I would encourage you to use the new emerge --autounmask option if possible, and file bugs if it is lacking any functionality that you need from app-portage/autounmask.

Fair enough. I only use autounmask on a snapshot for testing bumps. These changes will be thrown away again and I don't want to copy and paste the --autounmask output myself ;) Can I force emerge to add the required configuration changes itself?
(In reply to comment #2) > Can I force emerge to add the required configuration changes itself? It's not implemented yet, but has been requested in bug 345775.
I reassign this bug to ian then. (Either --backtrack=0 or 2>&1 work.) Thanks
package no longer in tree
