I`m trying to install net-ftp/pure-ftpd-1.0.32-r2 with mysql support without installing mysql server on localhost. When I setup "minimal" USE flag for dev-db/mysql and trying to emerge pure-ftpd - portage is blocking install, telling me I should remove this flag. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. echo "dev-db/mysql" > /etc/portage/package.use 2. emerge pure-ftpd 3. Actual Results: Calculating dependencies... done!

Steps to Reproduce: 1. echo "dev-db/mysql minimal" > /etc/portage/package.use PS: misprint in bug report.
The virtual AND the package need to have the same use flags. echo "dev-db/mysql minimal" > /etc/portage/package.use echo "virtual/mysql minimal" > /etc/portage/package.use
(In reply to comment #2) > The virtual AND the package need to have the same use flags. > > echo "dev-db/mysql minimal" > /etc/portage/package.use > echo "virtual/mysql minimal" > /etc/portage/package.use I did it before (and trying to do this now) but this doesn`t seem to work :( I have the same result. Oh.... seems to me I`ve found the problem. I`ve installed mysql before (long time ago) without minimal flag, then unmerge it but virtual/mysql package wasn`t unmerged. If I run emerge --unmerge virtual/mysql and then trying to install pure-ftpd - everithing is fine. Without it I have an issue described before. I don`t know if it`s a bug or a feature, but here is a steps to reproduce it. 1. USE="-minimal" emerge mysql 2. emerge --unmerge mysql 3. echo "dev-db/mysql minimal" >> /etc/portage/package.use 4. echo "virtual/mysql minimal" >> /etc/portage/package.use 5. echo "net-ftp/pure-ftpd mysql" >> /etc/portage/package.use 6. emerge pure-ftpd
You ought to set virtual/mysql[minimal] as well: both dev-db/mysql and virtual/mysql should have the same USE flag set for the "minimal" case.
I test it again, and I have the same results as it was described in my previous comment - if I do clean install (there is no packages dev-db/mysql or virtual/mysql in system) - everything is fine. If virtual/mysql already installed - emerge is blocking dev-db/mysql install, but it could easily fixed by unmerging virtual/mysql.
