I am using latest_tree to try to bootstrap Gentoo Prefix on ppc64-linux. It appears that sys-libs/zlib-1.2.5.1-r2 now inherits autotools, which introduces a circular dependency. This is similar to bug #406131. $ emerge -pv =sys-libs/zlib-1.2.5.1-r2 These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Thanks for testing, fixed docs in cvs.
I just re-encountered this issue on x64-macos. I am reopening this because the issue does not appear to be fixed. This is during the Mac OS X bootstrap when grep is emerged.

Ahh, fixed the ebuild in svn. http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/alt/changeset/60400
