Unmask packages required by dev-db/mariadb-galera on amd64 2. Attempt to install dev-db/mariadb-galera Actual Results: Dependecy resolution fails with blocks Expected Results: `client-libs` USE flag should remove the dependency of the `mariadb` and `mysql` library installs I was able to resolve the issue with the following patch (by reading the mysql-multilib.eclass) ```patch --- mysql-multilib.eclass 2015-09-16 10:18:47.759886164 -0500 +++ mysql-multilib.2.eclass 2015-09-16 10:19:46.339885030 -0500 @@ -464,8 +464,8 @@ # For other stuff to bring us in # dev-perl/DBD-mysql is needed by some scripts installed by MySQL -PDEPEND="${PDEPEND} perl?
