Bug 136772 – dev-tex/latex-beamer blocks dev-tex/latex-beamer, and depends on it

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE

[Description Iovka Boneva 2006-06-14 06:13:50 UTC]

It seams to me like a bug. Beamer blocks tetex, but beamer neads tetex!

etc # emerge -p dev-tex/latex-beamer

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge -C \>=app-text/tetex-3.0; emerge latex-beamer

Er, the above instructions are not complete...

echo ">=app-text/tetex-3.0" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
emerge -C \>=app-text/tetex-3.0; emerge latex-beamer

And, just wondering - why are you installing latex-beamer if you have tetex-3.0 installed? It's already included there (see Bug 94815).

Anyway, closing. No bug here, the block is intended.

Thank you !

Installing beamer separately gives a clean installation, with complete documentation.(In reply to comment #2)
