Hi, The 'app-text/sgml-common-0.6.3-r7' ebuild has a runtime dependency on itself. Even though the ebuild itself has DEPEND and RDEPEND set to "", this runtime dependency gets added by inheriting the sgml-catalog-r1.eclass. This currently doesn't break an emerge of sgml-common, but if portage implements a more strict interpretation of RDEPEND this will break an emerge unless sgml-common is added to the system profile. This can easily be fixed by declaring an variable in the sgml-common ebuild, and putting the RDEPEND statement in the eclass in a conditional statement that checks for that variable, like so: if [[ "${SOME_VAR}" = "yes" ]]; then RDEPEND="..." fi Thanks for looking into this Pieter
