The ebuild to dev-java/hibernate lists dependencies to commons-dbcp and commons-pool. These dependencies do not exists in reality. The ebuild works perfectly without these packages and hibernate itself comes with c3p0.jar, which is a replacement for commons-dbcp / commons-pool. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Just emerge. 2. 3. Actual Results: Portage wanted to install commons-dbcp and commons-pool (which I don't like, because they are buggy and IMHO bad designed) Expected Results: Install hibernate without these dependencies. Remove the two unnecessary dependencies.
Thanks, fixed in portage ;)
