Problem: emerge -av slic3r pulls in multiple unstable requests, leading to a forced upgrade to perl-5.22.1 unstable, and pulls perl-5.20.2 into emerge, resulting in a slot conflict. from stable system: ironhide emmason # cat /etc/portage/package.keywords/slic3r =dev-perl/Growl-GNTP-0.210.0-r1 =dev-perl/Wx-GLCanvas-0.90.0 =dev-lang/perl-5.22.1 =virtual/perl-threads-2.10.0 =dev-perl/Module-Build-WithXSpp-0.140.0 =dev-perl/ExtUtils-CppGuess-0.110.0 =dev-perl/constant-defer-6.0.0 =dev-perl/Math-Libm-1.0.0 =dev-perl/Math-NumSeq-71.0.0 =dev-perl/XML-SAX-ExpatXS-1.330.0 =dev-perl/Math-Prime-XS-0.260.0 =dev-perl/Math-Factor-XS-0.400.0 =dev-perl/Math-PlanePath-122.0.0 =dev-perl/ExtUtils-Typemaps-Default-1.50.0 =virtual/perl-Socket-2.18.0 media-gfx/slic3r =dev-perl/Module-Util-1.90.0 =dev-perl/Net-Bonjour-0.960.0 I have managed to get perl-5.22 installed, and a number of perl components installed through --nodeps flag.

1. Mixing ~arch and arch is not "officially" supported, but we still do what we can where possible. 2. However, the work involved to avoid forcing perl-5.22 was semi-large and threatened risking complicating people's next upgrade. 3. Stabilization is happening very very soon, and Perl 5.22 will become "Stable", avoiding this bug being a problem. ( And had we satisfied #2, we'd make #3 harder ) There's nothing really to do here other than not mix arches or wait for stabilization. The problem should go away very shortly after we get bug #567482 done.
Of note, you can add my overlay via "layman -a axs" to gain easy access to perl-core modules on par with dev-lang/perl-5.22. Then it's just a matter of keywording the various dev-perl and virtual packages.

Then it's just a matter > of keywording the various dev-perl and virtual packages. slic3r is now in the gentoo main repo (which is why I was getting these problems). I was using it from axs until just recently. Good to know on the keywording and perl issues. I think I just need to work through "perl-cleaner --reallyall" mixed with "emerge -av1 --nodeps package" a bit on getting these updated to 5.22, which is looking like the main issue that the existing packages are locking to 5.20. I seem to be having this issue on another computer here from 5.18 to 5.20.
I'm closing this one -- its not a bug to require ~arch deps when the package itself is ~arch. If slic3r was stable on any arch that would be another thing, but it's not.
