Description caspar-gentoo-bugs 2004-10-21 00:09:47 UTC
After updating portage from 2.0.50-r11 to 2.0.51 this morning I tried `emerge -Dup system` and got a blocking error:

[blocks B     ] sys-apps/modutils (from pkg sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.0-r2)
[blocks B     ] sys-apps/module-init-tools (from pkg sys-apps/modutils-2.4.25)

Both packages were installed according to qpkg and etcat.

So I unmerged modutils which removed the block with `emerge -Dup system`.

Out of curiosity I reinstalled module-init-tools on one machine which then utilized modutils-2.4.27, which as a standalone package is marked unstable.

This is correct behaviour. portage-2.0.50 missed some blocks that portage-2.0.51 doesn't.
