Description Kyle Smith 2004-04-19 19:27:26 UTC 
The ebuild for dev-perl/math-pari-2.010500-r1 has a hard depend on pari 2.1.5 (DEPEND="=app-sci/pari-2.1.5"), which has since been updated to 2.1.5-r2 and the 2.1.5 ebuild has been removed from portage

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sync
2. emerge math-pari

Actual Results:  
Calculating dependencies \
emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy "=app-sci/pari-2.1.5".
 
!!! Error calculating dependencies. Please correct.

Expected Results:  
Should have build pari 2.1.5-r2 if necessary and then emerged math-pari.

Changing the dev-perl/math-pari-2.010500-r1 ebuild as follows:

DEPEND="=app-sci/pari-2.1.5"

to

DEPEND=">=app-sci/pari-2.1.5"

solved the dependency problem and math-pari build successfully

you break it, you buy it phosphan. ;-)
Comment 2 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-19 23:16:01 UTC 
Already bought. Everything should be fine with math-pari-2.010500-r1.ebuild CVS version 1.6 which is in portage now. If you need a quick fix, just change the
= in the DEPEND line to a ~. Thanks for the hint.
