The MediaWiki ebuild wants to unmerge an existing TeX installation. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. [turn on USE flag 'tetex', install cstetex] 2. emerge -pv mediawiki 3. Actual Results: # emerge -pv mediawiki These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [blocks B ] app-text/cstetex (from pkg app-text/tetex-2.0.2-r4) [ebuild N ] dev-lang/ocaml-3.08.2 -debug -latex +tcltk 2,004 kB [ebuild N ] app-text/tetex-2.0.2-r4 +X -debug +doc 1 kB [ebuild N ] www-apps/mediawiki-1.3.9 +imagemagick +tetex -vhosts 1,538 kB Expected Results: # emerge -pv mediawiki These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

( virtual/tetex ) instead of tetex? ( app-text/tetex )
ping - easy one? - and why a blocker?
Dunno, you'll have to ask the maintainer (now assigned to him ;)
well, sorry for that late response, my new company's work is completely fscking my time up :( I'll take care of this :-)
erm, yeah, I fixed it, and with that action, I bumped up to 1.4.3 that's been recently announced. feel free to test it ;)
ah, remark! please don't mark bugs like those a BLOCKER that they aren't. usually only devs set them to this for particular reasons, besides, this one here I consider being trivial instead (just a note :-)
Well, it did block the installation of mediawiki, didn't it? Of course, an average Gentoo user should be able to workaround this kind of problems but still ;-)
