The quick and dirty fix is to remove "dev-lang", from line 38 of the g-cpan script (its what I'm doing in cvs atm). Thanks for bringing this up :) Can't reproduce anymore. |
Trying to install Net-LPR using g-cpan, which has a dependency on IO::Socket. It ends up trying to satisfy it using dev-lang/io: !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=dev-lang/io-1.2301" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - dev-lang/io-2006.12.07 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) From /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan/Net-LPR: DEPEND=" >=dev-lang/io-1.2301 " Changing the DEPEND to a null string builds and installs a working module. Reproducible: Always
