Description Mike Haskel 2005-02-11 20:10:12 UTC

After an emerge sync, I run an emerge --update --deep world, which fails.  The error message says that dev-lang/python-2.3.4-r1 requires dev-python/python-docs-2.3.4, which is masked by "~ppc".  My entire system strictly uses ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc".

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.`emerge python` with a recent portage tree.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
I recieved the aforedescribed error message.

Expected Results:  
If the python docs are truly unstable, a version of python marked as stable
should not call them as a dependency.  If they are stable, they should not be
masked with the "~ppc" keyword.

I have attached emerge info output.
