sun-j2sdk-1.4.2 depends on blackdown-jdk-1.4.1 blackdown-jdk-1.4.1 depends on java-sdk-docs-1.4.1 Therefore sun-j2sdk-1.4.2 depends on java-sdk-docs-1.4.1 I want j2sdk 1.4.2, I should not have to download java-sdk-docs-1.4.1. When I initially ran into this problem, I installed java-sdk-docs-1.4.2, which is a reasonable requirement. But blackdown-jdk depends on =java-sdk-docs-1.4.1 not >=java-sdk-docs-1.4.1, so this did not fix anything. This is not the same bug as 30929. This output shows my issue: bash-2.05b# qpkg -I -v java-sdk-docs dev-java/java-sdk-docs-1.4.2 * bash-2.05b# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pv sun-j2sdk These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!
