happened in the past with icedtea and icedtea-bin as well .. is there a general algorithm fault .. I and I've noticed similar issues before
Right now I can see something like this on https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-qt/qtwebkit Also in https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-qt/qtwebkit.json things are relatedly exported wrong.
It looks like its not handling the mask syntax in package.mask right, and is interpreting an entry in package.mask as masking the *whole package*, not specific version ranges. https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-lang/perl
I mean this is the code: # Provides low-level access to a mask file class Portage::Util::Maskfile attr_reader :masks def initialize(path) @path = path @masks = [] parse! end def parse! File.read(@path).split("\n\n").each do |raw_mask| comments = [] atoms = [] raw_mask.each_line do |line| line.strip! if line.start_with? '#' comments << line else atoms << line unless line == '' end end # Skip examples or other comment-only entries next if atoms.empty? author = nil date = nil if comments.first =~ /^#\s+(.*)\s+<([^>]+)>\s\(([^)]+)\)/ author = '%s <%s>' % [$1, $2] date = $3 end # Strip the newlines, we don't want to carry over the ASCII art reason = comments[1..-1].map { |l| l.gsub(/^# /, '') }.join ' ' @masks << Portage::Util::Mask.new(author, date, reason, atoms) end end end I wouldn't be shocked by any bugs in it; but I'm not sure if we have a good test case to clearly show a bug. Please re-open if you spot a case where it goes wrong.
Created attachment 521978 [details] webkit-gtk screenshot I suspect the code has changed since this bug was filed. At least, it appears different: Now the mistake is the other way around, masked packages *arent* obvious from the matrix.

Ok so we recorded a mask, the mask is on 2 atoms, but we failed to somehow identify that the atoms are slots, and that the slots match 2 of the 3 available versions. Thanks for the report. -A
We rewrote the entire application.
