I just tried to emerge -uUDv world which tried this: [ebuild U ] media-libs/libpng-1.2.5-r6 [1.2.5-r5] 0 kB [ebuild U ] dev-lang/python-2.3.4_rc1 [2.3.3-r1] +X +berkdb -bootstrap -build -doc +gdbm -ipv6 +ncurses +readline +ssl +tcltk -ucs2 0 kB So I added to /etc/portage/package.use this: dev-lang/python doc And then: /usr/portage #: emerge -uUDvp world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies | emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy "=dev-python/python-docs-2.3.4_rc1*". !!!

This is also a bug with repoman. repoman reports this situation as clean which I imagine is how it ended up broken in portage. Maybe because it's behind two negative use checks? Removing the !arm? negative use check causes repoman to complain loudly.
my bad, i always check the docs, but forgot about it this time. we need to get all the other arches on the docs as well. arch maintainers, can you all mark dev-python/python-docs-2.3.* to match the arch in dev-lang/python?

Unless it's been commited in the last hour or so, python-2.3.4_rc1 is lacking an equialent docs package and is causing emerge to die on a bad dep but the package it dies on is not the correct one (sparc-utils for me when doing an emerge -upvD system and app-emacs/vm when doing emerge -upvD world). Can somone do up an ebuild for that version if this hasn't already been addressed?
I bumped python-docs to 2.3.4_rc1.

I've just resynced and the problem is still present.
What arch? It's fixed on x86 and alpha.
power pc
fixed, sorry for the delay
