Description James Lochhead 2021-01-09 14:39:42 UTC
Hello,

New Gentoo user here. I recently did my first experimental install, following the AMD64 manual to the letter using profile 6 and the latest stable stage 3 tarballs, on a spare SSD. I got an error while trying to do my first `emerge --ask --verbose --update --deep --newuse @world`. I am now on my second install, this time a bit more elaborate, with profile 7 and the latest stage 3 tarballs, and I am getting the same error.

The error is as follows:
```
It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying any of the following changes:
- net-wireless/bluez-5.55 (Change USE: -systemd)
- sys-apps/dbus-1.12.20-r1 (Change USE: -X)
- dev-lang/python-3.9.0-r1 (Change USE: -bluetooth)
```

On my first install, I successfully worked around it by:
```
echo "dev-lang/python -bluetooth" >> /etc/portage/package.use/python
```

Comment 1 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-09 14:40:48 UTC
This is a frustrating one that seems to have become more common recently.

The full emerge output would be helpful if you could get it, with emerge -p -uvDU @world, just to see what is actually being pulled in.

You also left out the actual cycle bit, I believe.
Comment 2 James Lochhead 2021-01-09 14:42:08 UTC
Noticed I missed some of the error text:
```
 * Error: circular dependencies:

(sys-apps/dbus-1.12.20-r1:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
 (x11-libs/libX11-1.7.0:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
  (x11-libs/libxcb-1.14:0/1.12::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
   (dev-lang/python-3.9.0-r1:3.9/3.9::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
    (net-wireless/bluez-5.55:0/3::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
     (sys-apps/dbus-1.12.20-r1:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime_slot_op)

It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying any of the following changes:
- net-wireless/bluez-5.55 (Change USE: -systemd)
- sys-apps/dbus-1.12.20-r1 (Change USE: -X)

```

Please find the requested output of `emerge -p -uvDU @world` attached.
Comment 4 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-09 14:49:28 UTC
Perfect, thank you!

(Assigned to releng and CCed python@ to see if we can do anything about included packages, but I'm not sure how likely that is.

There is another Python one I've seen more recently which may be fixable (involving CMake?)).
Comment 5 Ben Kohler gentoo-dev 2021-01-09 15:05:37 UTC
I wonder if we should just put "dev-lang/python -bluetooth" into desktop profiles' package.use
Comment 6 Brian Evans (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-01-09 15:10:48 UTC
This is profile selection issue possibly combined with bug 702806.

The base profile will not have any issue.

With the X and bluetooth USE being enabled in the desktop target, this rears its head.

One workaround would be to add 'dev-lang/python -bluetooth' to desktop profile's package.use
Comment 7 Brian Evans (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-01-12 17:49:51 UTC
As discussed in IRC, this will also combine with a circular dep with sqlite on python:3.9.

There was a note that sqlite may become default on python or system in the near future.

Until full decisions are made, the current suggested workaround is to add '--exclude dev-lang/python:3.9' to the emerge command. This removes any circular build dependency related to python from stage3.
Comment 8 James Lochhead 2021-01-14 23:16:18 UTC
Just a note that my original workaround no longer works with the latest stage 3 tarballs.

When using Brian's alternative workaround, I get past emerge complaining about circulars.

side note: at my tinderbox I need in addition:
