Since texlive-2010 is stabilized, emerging texlive fails, because virtual/latex-base, needed e.g by app-text/dvipng or sci-mathematics/maxima, requires <texlive-latexrecommended-2009 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge app-text/texlive virtual/latex-base 2. 3. Actual Results: emerge failed Expected Results: emerge succeeds
The dependencies of virtual/latex-base-1.0 are: || ( ( dev-texlive/texlive-latexrecommended dev-texlive/texlive-fontutils ) <dev-texlive/texlive-latexrecommended-2009 app-text/ptex ) Under normal circumstances it should install dev-texlive/texlive-latexrecommended and dev-texlive/texlive-fontutils. You need to find out why it does not for you.

It originally failed in paludis, and when I checked with portage, I just checked that it fails and didn't notice that texlive-fontutils was masked under portage. I'll redirect my problem to paludis authors, thanks.
