emerge dev-perl/File-Type-0.22 fails and error message says this is due to no dependency on dev-perl/module-build and requests a bug report. module-build is not installed on my system. So I tried to emerge it and received the same error message except it was from dev-perl/ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.05 error message -------------------------------------------------------- >>> emerge (2 of 22) dev-perl/File-Type-0.22 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) File-Type-0.22.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking File-Type-0.22.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/File-Type-0.22/work >>> Source unpacked.

Thank you for letting me know about File-Type - the eclass warning is a new "feature" so that I can keep better qa going in the perl tree (hey, we can all dream). I can duplicate your second problem - despite there being a DEPEND for module-build in CBuilder, I don't see it actually being pulled in, which has me concerned. Will post as soon as I have more info. One question - when was your last sync? module-build shouldn't be pulling ExtUtils-CBuilder any more (dep on extutils-parsexs was removed because of this loop on the 14/15th)
Oh - and yes, File-Type now deps module-build :)
OK, I'm an idiot - had an old copy of CBuilder in my overlay without the dep in it - now emerge -p ExtUtils-CBuilder shows module-build as a dependancy, and it emerges fine. My genlop -l output (cause it's cleaner than pasting all those emerge successful lines): Wed Mar 16 05:18:51 2005 --> dev-perl/module-build-0.26.08 Wed Mar 16 05:19:04 2005 --> dev-perl/ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.05 If you are still having problems emerging either File-Type or ExtUtils-CBuilder after an emerge sync, please tee the output (or if you have PORT_LOGDIR enabled in make.conf, even better) so I can see specifically what is going on, though I suspect its either been a day or more since your last sync, or the mirror you hit was at the tail end of the update-mirrors list.
I was nearly a day since my last sync. Anyway I sync'd and this time the emerge works. Actually I was trying to emerge svk. That didn't quite finish (failed on a test) but the problem in this bug report is clearly fixed. Both dependencies seem to be working. Also thanks for the comment about genlop. Didn't know about that before but looks very useful. thanks for your help Greg
Not a problem - sorry I managed to look like an idiot in the span of an hour or so :)
